House Bill No. introduced by K. Seekins-Crowe mandates that certain state agencies in Montana, specifically the Departments of Agriculture and Environmental Quality, as well as the Board of Oil and Gas Conservation, publish guidance documents received from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The bill requires these agencies to publish the documents on a designated website within 15 days of receipt and to maintain a record of any rescinded documents, indicating the date of rescission. Additionally, the agencies must create a conspicuous hyperlink on their websites to provide access to these guidance documents.

The bill includes provisions for the designation of the website within 90 days of the act's effective date and defines "guidance document" as a federal agency statement of general applicability that outlines policies or interpretations on various issues. The new sections introduced in the bill are intended to be codified into existing law, specifically within Title 75, Title 80, and Title 82, ensuring that the requirements for transparency and accessibility of federal guidance documents are formally integrated into Montana's legal framework.
