Extending the expiration date for reporting requirements on timber purchases.
HB 1389 extends the expiration date for existing reporting requirements on large timber purchases. The bill requires purchasers of over 200,000 board feet of privately owned timber to report details of their acquisitions to the state department. This information includes seller and buyer details, sale price, and estimated timber volume. Originally set to expire on September 30, 2025, these reporting requirements will now remain in effect until September 30, 2029. Failure to report can result in a $250 penalty.

MINOR
The document has been converted from a House Bill text into a formal Certification of Enrollment, which is an official record confirming the bill was passed by both legislative chambers. This change is procedural and administrative, serving to finalize the bill's journey through the legislature rather than altering any policy, funding, or legal requirements.
TECHNICAL
Added the full text of the Certification of Enrollment, including signatures, dates, and vote counts from both the House and Senate.
Removed the original bill text and header information (e.g., H-0488.1) to replace it with the certification document.
