What changed in the latest version
0 added · 7 removedPlain-language change summary
The recent amendment to SB 71 clarifies the definition and criteria for what constitutes a "key facility," which includes specific types of industrial sites like chemical manufacturing plants and electric utility facilities. It emphasizes that these facilities must be enclosed by a physical barrier and properly posted with signs to protect them from unauthorized entry. This change is important because it more clearly defines the security measures necessary to safeguard sensitive infrastructure, enhancing safety and legal enforcement in the state of Michigan.
