Referred to the Committee on Agriculture
Substitute offered
by
To replace the previous version of the bill with one that also expands the definition of a "renewable energy facility" renaisssance zone to include a facility that "creates energy from agricultural crops or processed products from agricultural crops," rather that just residues from agricultural products. This would authorize these extensive tax breaks for ethanol producers.
The substitute passed by voice vote
Amendment offered
by
To break a tie-bar to House Bill 5100, meaning that bill need not become law for this one to. HB 5100 would revise the 2006 law that authorized up to 10 tax-free "renaissance zones" to provide substantial tax breaks for "renewable energy facilities,” to explicitly include crop-based fuel production facilities such as ethanol or biodiesel plants.
