Plain-language change summary

The recent amendments to Bill SB 2082 create two new funds: a state hazardous chemicals preparedness and response fund and a county hazardous chemicals preparedness and response account. These funds will be sourced from fees collected through the state’s hazardous chemical fee system, along with other financial support like grants and donations. This change is significant as it aims to enhance the state's and counties' ability to prepare for and respond to incidents involving hazardous chemicals, ultimately improving public safety and environmental health.
