Bill Text
What changed in the latest version
2 added · 2 removedPlain-language change summary
The revised version of Bill HB 1460 now requires all state-owned or leased buildings that are 1,000 square feet or larger to use Energy Star labeled light bulbs instead of just fluorescent light bulbs. This change allows for greater flexibility in the types of energy-efficient lighting that can be used, as Energy Star includes various technologies that meet energy-saving criteria. Additionally, the bill mandates proper disposal of used light bulbs due to mercury content and exempts historic buildings from these requirements. This matters because it promotes better environmental practices while considering the unique needs of historic properties.
