Texas HB3079 amends the Texas emissions reduction plan to include programs targeting emissions from marine vessels.

HB3079 amends the Texas emissions reduction plan to allow the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality to establish and administer programs aimed at reducing emissions from marine vessels. These programs may include grants or funding initiatives. The commission can either apply existing criteria and requirements to these new programs or establish separate criteria as needed. The programs must align with state laws, regulations, and guidelines for state funds, grants, and contracts, and aim to reduce ozone precursors or particulate matter.
