Assembly Bill 911 aims to establish a funding mechanism for a battery collection and recycling program in Wisconsin. The bill creates a new statute, 20.370 (4) (ht), which mandates that all funds received by the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) from battery stewardship organizations be appropriated from the environmental fund to support the implementation of this program. This funding is contingent upon the passage of a separate bill, as the bill will become void if that legislation is not enacted.

Additionally, the bill includes a provision stating that if neither Assembly Bill 713 nor Senate Bill 702 is passed during the 2025-26 legislative session, the act will also be rendered void. This creates a conditional framework for the battery collection and recycling initiative, linking its success to the approval of related legislative measures.
