Environmental protection: groundwater contamination; annual appropriation for certain geological survey work; direct legislature to make. Amends sec. 60108 of 1994 PA 451 (MCL 324.60108).
This bill requires the Michigan legislature to provide annual funding to the Michigan Geological Survey to support its statewide responsibilities. The law mandates that each year's appropriation must be at least as much as the amount given for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2025. By securing this minimum funding level, the bill ensures the agency has the financial resources needed to carry out its duties without interruption.
