Missouri Senate panel endorses Environmental Improvement Authority bill
The Senate Public Health and Welfare Committee approved a House bill to establish a statewide Environmental Improvement Authority to issue bonds finance pollution abatement projects and aid industries with municipal bond rates. Rep. Copeland noted Noranda mining interests would benefit while the agency would not supplant existing pollution agencies or pledge state credit. The panel took no action on increased nursing home payments and on licensing boarding homes under the Nursing Home Licensing Act, with opposition from boarding home operators over required construction standards.
