relating to the amount of money authorized to be used for Clean Air | ||
Act local initiative projects related to vehicles. | ||
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS: | ||
SECTION 1. Section 382.220(d), Health and Safety Code, is | ||
amended to read as follows: | ||
(d) Fees collected under Sections 382.202 and 382.302 may be | ||
used, in an amount not to exceed $10 [ |
||
for projects described by Subsection (b). The fees shall be made | ||
available only to counties participating in the low-income vehicle | ||
repair assistance, retrofit, and accelerated vehicle retirement | ||
programs created under Section 382.209 and only on a matching | ||
basis, whereby the commission provides money to a county in the same | ||
amount that the county dedicates to a project authorized by | ||
Subsection (b). The commission may reduce the match requirement | ||
for a county that proposes to develop and implement independent | ||
test facility fraud detection programs, including the use of remote | ||
sensing technology for coordinating with law enforcement officials | ||
to detect, prevent, and prosecute the use of counterfeit state | ||
inspection stickers. | ||
SECTION 2. This Act takes effect September 1, 2013. |
