Description
Small agricultural generators; definition. Expands the definition of "small agricultural generator" to include any business operating a small agricultural generating facility that has been granted a manufacturer license as a distillery, limited distillery, brewery, limited brewery, winery, or farm winery. Under current law, small agricultural generators include only those businesses operating a small agricultural generating facility as part of an agricultural business. The bill requires the State Corporation Commission to initiate a rulemaking, after August 1, 2021, but prior to January 1, 2022, to promulgate regulations to implement the provisions of the bill. This bill incorporates HB 2215. Read the Bill »
