OFA Fiscal Note
Potential Revenue Gain
The amendment strikes the underlying bill and its associated fiscal
impact.
The amendment requires the Department of Energy and
Environmental Protection (DEEP), by December 15, 2023, to produce a
Connecticut Decarbonization Roadmap, which has no fiscal impact
because the agency has the necessary expertise. It also requires DEEP to
identify additional federal funds available to municipalities and school
districts for reducing carbon emissions. This could result in a revenue
gain to various municipalities and local and regional school districts
beginning in FY 24 to the extent federal funds are made available
following such identification.
