If enacted, this bill would update current statutes by appropriating $900,000 from the state general fund for the fiscal year 2025-2026 specifically for the State Mine Inspector. This funding is designated for mine safety measures and the acquisition and upgrade of software databases. Additionally, the bill stipulates that this appropriation is exempt from the usual provisions regarding lapsing appropriations, ensuring that the funds remain available for use beyond the fiscal year.

Furthermore, the bill expresses the legislature's intent for $100,000 of the appropriated amount to be considered ongoing funding in future years. This change aims to enhance the resources available for mine safety and operational improvements, reflecting a commitment to maintaining and improving safety standards in Arizona's mining industry.
