Propose a change

RSA 12-E Mining and Reclamation

Write the words of this act the way you think they should read. Solon shows your change as a redline against the published text and pins it to that exact text, so it can never be applied to wording you did not see.

What to do with it
As published

12-E:3 Prospecting Permit Required.

I. Prior to prospecting for minerals on any lands within the state a person shall obtain a prospecting permit from the commissioner upon payment of a fee pursuant to RSA 12-E:8. The commissioner may attach conditions upon issuance of the permit to minimize the environmental damage of such activities. Such prospecting permit shall be valid for a term of one year subject to renewal upon request to the commissioner. The prospecting permit shall not be effective until all required permits are obtained from the department of environmental services. II. If prospecting activities continue on property for which a mining permit is issued by the commissioner, such activities shall be incorporated into the plan and renewal of a prospecting permit shall not be required. III. Possession of a prospecting permit shall not entitle any person to prospect upon any land owned, leased, rented or occupied by another without the express written permission of the landowner and other persons having a legal interest in the land or the mineral rights therein.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".

Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.

A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.

Think it through

Ask what your change would do, who would gain and who would bear a cost, and where something like it is already law. The assistant reads your draft as it stands, cites the law and the studies it finds, and takes no side. What you file stays yours.
