HCS HB 1970 -- MITIGATION OF PROPERTY DAMAGE AND DESTRUCTION
(Munzlinger)

COMMITTEE OF ORIGIN:  Special Committee on Agri-Business

This substitute exempts owners of anhydrous ammonia from
reasonable cleanup costs caused by illegal tampering and
specifies that a person who negligently damages or destroys a
field crop product is liable only for actual damages directly
related to the damaged or destroyed crop.  Currently, a person
who knowingly damages or destroys a field crop product is liable
for double the damages.

FISCAL NOTE:  No impact on state funds in FY 2007, FY 2008, and
FY 2009.
