AN ACT ESTABLISHING A TASK FORCE TO ASSESS AND IMPLEMENT INFRASTRUCTURE RESILIENCY TO CLIMATE CHANGE IN THE GREATER HARTFORD AREA SURROUNDING THE CONNECTICUT RIVER.

SB 418 creates a task force to address climate change impacts on infrastructure in the Greater Hartford area surrounding the Connecticut River. The task force, including state environmental and transportation agencies plus local town representatives, will assess and coordinate resilience strategies - specifically focusing on the Connecticut River's levee system. It directly affects communities and infrastructure in this region by planning for climate-related risks. The bill establishes the framework for this collaboration but does not make direct policy changes or allocate funding.
