This bill amends the Environmental Hearing Board Act, specifically Section 3(d), to clarify the terms of board members. It establishes that a member shall serve a term of six years or until a successor is appointed, while one additional member will serve an initial term of four years. The bill also stipulates that vacancies on the board will be filled in the same manner as the original appointment.

Furthermore, the bill introduces a new provision requiring that after a board member's term expires, the member must be reappointed by the Governor with the consent of a majority of the elected Senate members. This amendment aims to enhance the governance and continuity of the Environmental Hearing Board. The act is set to take effect 60 days after its passage.
