This is from a weekly roundup of some of ICIE’s activities in and around the Idaho Legislature. Staffing limits mean we can’t cover every meeting. If there’s an item of interest to you at an upcoming meeting of one of the environment or agriculture committees, let us know and we’ll try to cover it. Agendas are available at http://www.state.id.us/. Click on “Legislative” and click on “Calendars and agendas.”
Senate Health & Welfare Committee, 1-26-09 Members of ICIE’s Environmental/Regulatory Affairs (E/RA) Committee gave a presentation to the Senate Health & Welfare Committee on Rules, Guidance and Stringency. Norm Semanko, Chairman of the E/RA Committee introduced the presenters—Roy Eiguren, Eiguren Public Law & Policy; Jack Lyman, Idaho Mining Association; Joan Cloonan, member of the Board of Environmental Quality and environmental consultant discussed the differences between rules and guidance and the issue of state stringency over federal rules. The same presentation was made the next day to the House Resources & Conservation Committee.
