    A bit of a check on the DEQ

    And maybe some others.

    Works for me anyhow.

    The little things like HB4326 are good for Michigan business.  The DEQ under the Granholm regime reigned heavy with indiscriminate and wanton administrative restrictions, and punitive measures. One example, the King of the wind Farms in Macomb County.

    The simple language:

    (5) Except for an emergency rule promulgated under section 48, if the federal government has mandated that this state promulgate rules, an agency shall not promulgate or adopt a rule more stringent than the applicable federally mandated standard unless specifically authorized by Michigan statute.

    (6) Except for an emergency rule promulgated under section 48, if the federal government has not mandated that this state promulgate rules, an agency shall not promulgate or adopt a rule more stringent than the applicable federal standard unless specifically authorized by Michigan statute.


    In other words, a limit on unelected repositories of power in government.  It eliminates over reach by those with a political agenda.

    Good idea.  Shame our guy up here voted against it.

    Rep. Schmidt's 'maverick' vote is to be expected.

    Traverse City has been "The Land of Milquetoast and Blubbery" for some time now.

    Heck, when looking at all the comings and goings, TC is poised to become the new Ann Arbor.

    Appreciate the little 'r' Schmidt vote while it lasts.

    Hang tough, bub...
