Concerning enhanced protections regarding the disposal of naturally occurring radioactive materials, and, in connection therewith, making an appropriation.

- While the state board is conducting its rule-making investigation, requires:
- The department of public health and environment (department) to convene a stakeholder group;
- Generators of NORM and TENORM waste to report to the department;
- The department to contract for the creation of a report;
- The department to submit the report to the general assembly;
