MINOR
The bill was amended to clarify the definition of 'charger-agnostic' and to delay the timeline for new regulations. The definition now explicitly lists Level 1, Level 2, and DC fast chargers as acceptable options. Additionally, the requirement for the state to promulgate new rules was changed from taking effect within twelve months of the bill's passage to only applying when a new building code is adopted after December 31, 2026.
Scope change
The bill's applicability was narrowed by adding a specific future date (December 31, 2026) as the trigger for the new regulatory requirements, rather than requiring immediate rulemaking upon the bill's passage.
TIMELINE
The deadline for the state to create new charging rules was changed from 'within twelve months' of the bill's effective date to 'when adopting a new code after December thirty-first, two thousand twenty-six'.
DEFINITION
The definition of 'charger-agnostic' was updated to explicitly state that it allows for the use of Level 1, Level 2, or DC fast chargers depending on power availability and site conditions.
