Massachusetts H4295 regulates the separation of agricultural land for renewable energy projects.
Massachusetts H4295 establishes rules for separating agricultural land for renewable energy projects. It limits the amount of land that can be separated to no more than ten percent of the total contiguous land or fifteen acres, whichever is less. The separated land must be non-productive agricultural or horticultural land at the time of separation. If the land ceases to be used for renewable energy, it must revert to agricultural or horticultural use or face liability for conveyance. The land is exempt from roll-back taxes during its use for renewable energy.
