S 218 Vermont Senate · 2023-2024 Regular Session

An act relating to the staffing of the Dam Safety Division

This bill proposes adding three new permanent full-time staff positions to the Dam Safety Division within Vermont's Department of Environmental Conservation. To support these new roles, the legislation appropriates $350,000 from the Agency of Natural Resources' 2025 budget. The funding and positions would become effective immediately upon the bill's passage. This change aims to increase staffing capacity for dam safety oversight without altering existing operational procedures.
