Amend the bill by striking out all of section 2.
 
SUMMARY
This amendment, which is the majority report, removes section 2 from the bill, which creates a threshold capacity of 500 megawatts for nuclear power plants for which a referendum is required as part of the siting process. The amendment maintains the current law, which requires a referendum for any nuclear power plant regardless of its generating capacity, but it leaves the provision in the bill that amends the findings section of the laws regarding nuclear power generating facilities.
