HB 1062-S - DIGEST
(DIGEST OF PROPOSED 1ST SUBSTITUTE)

Finds that the implementation of Washington's sustainable energy agenda is being impeded due to the fragmented division of responsibilities among these state-based energy agencies and institutions and the lack of a central coordinating agency that ensures cooperation and the execution of a strategic plan.

Declares an intent to centralize state energy programs and certain regulatory functions that are currently spread throughout state government into one central office called the sustainable energy office.
