CHAIRMAN HALFORD brought CSHB 513(STA) (GRANTS/LOANS FOR STORAGE              
 TANK OWNERS) before the committee as the final order of business.             
 He noted the bill was the same as SB 295 which went through the               
 Senate committee process and has been approved for calendaring.               
                                                                               
 JEFFREY LOGAN, staff to Representative Joe Green, explained the               
 legislation does three things:  Section 1 expands the program;                
 Section 2 sets deadlines for part of the program; and Section 3               
 also extends the deadline.  In Section 3 the deadlines for the                
 upgrading and closure sections will be set for December 31, 1994.             
                                                                               
 CHAIRMAN HALFORD asked if the existing law was designed to sunset             
 by the application dates without this legislation.  MR. LOGAN                 
 acknowledged that it was.                                                     
                                                                               
 SENATOR LITTLE asked if there were any differences between the                
 Senate bill and the House version before the committee.  MR. LOGAN            
 answered that the version that passed the House and the Senate                
 Judiciary version are exactly alike.                                          
                                                                               
 SENATOR LITTLE moved that CSHB 513(STA) be passed out of committee            
 with individual recommendations.  Hearing no objection, it was so             
 ordered.                                                                      
                                                                               
 SENATOR LITTLE moved and asked unanimous consent that CSHB 513(STA)           
 be approved for calendaring at the Chair's discretion.  Hearing no            
 objection, it was so ordered.
