The Honorable Steve Sviggum
Speaker of the House of

The Honorable James P.
Metzen
President of the Senate
We, the undersigned conferees for H. F. No. 42, report that we
have agreed upon the items in dispute and recommend as follows:
That the Senate recede from its amendment and that H. F. No. 42
be further amended as follows:
Delete everything after the enacting clause and insert:
"Section 1.
Minnesota Statutes 2004, section 97B.031, subdivision 4, is amended to
read:
Subd. 4. [SILENCERS
PROHIBITED.] Except as provided in section 609.66, subdivision 1h, a
person may not own or possess a silencer for a firearm or a firearm equipped to
have a silencer attached.
Sec. 2. Minnesota
Statutes 2004, section 609.66, subdivision 1h, is amended to read:
Subd. 1h. [SILENCERS;
AUTHORIZED FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT AND WILDLIFE CONTROL PURPOSES.] (a)
Notwithstanding subdivision 1a, paragraph (a), clause (1), licensed peace
officers may use devices designed to silence or muffle the discharge of a
firearm for tactical emergency response operations. Tactical emergency response operations include execution of high
risk search and arrest warrants, incidents of terrorism, hostage rescue, and
any other tactical deployments involving high risk circumstances. The chief law enforcement officer of a law
enforcement agency that has the need to use silencing devices must establish
and enforce a written policy governing the use of the devices.
(b) Notwithstanding subdivision 1a, paragraph (a), clause
(1), until July 1, 2011, an enforcement officer, as defined in section 97A.015,
subdivision 18, a wildlife area manager, an employee designated under section
84.0835, or a person acting under contract with the commissioner of natural
resources, at specific times and locations that are authorized by the
commissioner of natural resources may use devices designed to silence or muffle
the discharge of a firearm for wildlife control operations that require
stealth. If the commissioner determines
that the use of silencing devices is necessary under this paragraph, the
commissioner must:
(1) establish and enforce a written policy governing the
use, possession, and transportation of the devices;
(2) limit the number of the silencing devices maintained by
the Department of Natural Resources to no more than ten; and
(3) keep direct custody and control of the devices when the
devices are not specifically authorized for use.
Sec. 3. [EFFECTIVE
DATE.]
Sections 1 and 2 are effective the day following enactment."
Delete the title and insert:
"A bill for an act relating to firearms; temporarily
authorizing the use of silencers to muffle discharges of firearms for natural
resource wildlife control; amending Minnesota Statutes 2004, sections 97B.031,
subdivision 4; 609.66, subdivision 1h."
We request adoption of this report and repassage of the bill.

H. F. No. 1925 was reported to the House.
Dean moved to amend H. F. No. 1925, the second engrossment, as
follows:
Page 9, after line 28, insert:
"Sec. 6. Minnesota
Statutes 2004, section 245A.035, subdivision 5, is amended to read:
Subd. 5. [CHILD FOSTER
CARE LICENSE APPLICATION.] (a) The emergency license holder shall
complete the child foster care license application and necessary paperwork
within ten days of the placement. The
county agency shall assist the emergency license holder to complete the
application. The granting of a child
foster care license to a relative shall be under the procedures in this chapter
and according to the standards set forth by foster care rule. In licensing a relative, the commissioner
shall consider the importance of maintaining the child's relationship with
relatives as an additional significant factor in determining whether to set
aside a licensing disqualifier under section 245C.22, or to grant a variance of
licensing requirements under sections 245C.21 to 245C.27.
(b) When the county or private child placing agency is
processing an application for child foster care licensure of a relative as
defined in sections 260B.007, subdivision 12, or 260C.007, subdivision 27, the
county agency or child placing agency must explain the licensing process to the
prospective licensee, including the background study process and the procedure
for reconsideration of an initial disqualification for licensure. The county or private child placing agency
must also provide the prospective relative licensee with information regarding
appropriate options for legal representation in the pertinent geographic
area. If a relative is initially
disqualified under section 245C.14, the county or child-placing agency must
provide written notice of the reasons for the disqualification and the right to
request a reconsideration by the commissioner as required under section
245C.17.
(c) The commissioner shall maintain licensing data so that
activities related to applications and licensing actions for relative foster
care providers may be distinguished from other child foster care settings."

"Sec. 15.
Minnesota Statutes 2004, section 245A.16, subdivision 1, is amended to

subdivision. However, this section does
not create a duty on the part of the contracting entity to provide access to
public data to the public if the public data are available from the
corporation, except as required by the terms of the contract. Any entity contracting to perform functions
of the corporation may classify data as competitive data as defined in
paragraph (b).
Subd. 2. [OPEN MEETING LAW.] (a) The board of directors of the
corporation is subject to chapter 13D, the Minnesota Open Meeting Law.

operational issues the disclosure of which, in its discretion, it determines
could cause competitive disadvantage to the corporation, including causing
adverse effects on the current or future competitive position of the
corporation or the entities, facilities, and operations for which it is
responsible. Meetings of committees of
the board of directors may, at the discretion of the board, be closed to the
public.
(c) In addition, the following meetings of the corporation

(1) an annual public meeting to report on the affairs of the corporation
and the goals for the future, including a report on the health services plan
specified in section 383B.918; (2) meetings of the corporation held during the
development and implementation phase of the health services plan for the

S. F. No. 1368 was reported to the House.
Peterson, A.; Thissen; Kahn; Ellison; Hornstein and Hausman
moved to amend S. F. No. 1368 as follows:
Page 20, after line 10, insert:
"ARTICLE
3
RENEWABLE
ENERGY STANDARDS
Section 1. Minnesota
Statutes 2004, section 216B.1691, is amended to read:
216B.1691 [RENEWABLE ENERGY STANDARDS AND OBJECTIVES.]
Subdivision 1.
[DEFINITIONS.] (a) Unless otherwise specified in law, "eligible
energy technology" means an energy technology that:
(1) generates electricity from the following renewable energy
sources: solar; wind; hydroelectric
with a capacity of less than 60 megawatts; hydrogen, provided that after
January 1, 2010, the hydrogen must be generated from the resources listed in
this clause; or biomass, which includes an energy recovery facility used to
capture the heat value of mixed municipal solid waste or refuse-derived fuel
from mixed municipal solid waste as a primary fuel; and
(2) was not mandated by Laws 1994, chapter 641, or by
commission order issued pursuant to that chapter prior to August 1, 2001.
(b) "Electric utility" means a public utility
providing electric service, a generation and transmission cooperative electric
association, or a municipal power agency.
(c) "Total retail electric sales" means the
kilowatt-hours of electricity sold in a year by an electric utility to retail
customers of the electric utility or to a distribution utility for distribution
to the retail customers of the distribution utility.
Subd. 2. [ELIGIBLE
ENERGY OBJECTIVES.] (a) Each electric utility shall make a good faith effort to
generate or procure sufficient electricity generated by an eligible energy
technology to provide its retail consumers, or the retail customers of a
distribution utility to which the electric utility provides wholesale electric
service, so that:
(1) commencing in 2005, at least one percent of the electric
utility's total retail electric sales is generated by eligible energy
technologies;
(2) the amount provided under clause (1) is increased by one
percent of the utility's total retail electric sales each year until 2015
2010; and
(3) ten five percent of the electric energy
provided to retail customers in Minnesota by 2010 is generated by
eligible energy technologies.
(b) Of the eligible energy technology generation required under
paragraph (a), clauses (1) and (2), not less than 0.5 percent of the energy
must be generated by biomass energy technologies, including an energy recovery
facility used to capture the heat value of mixed municipal solid waste or
refuse-derived fuel from mixed municipal solid waste as a primary fuel, by
2005. By 2010, one percent of the
eligible technology generation required under paragraph (a), clauses (1) and
(2), shall be generated by biomass energy technologies. An energy recovery facility used to capture
the heat value of mixed municipal solid waste or refuse-derived fuel from mixed
municipal solid waste, with a power sales agreement in effect as of May 29,
2003, that terminates after December 31, 2010, does not qualify as an eligible
energy technology unless the agreement provides for rate adjustment in the
event the facility qualifies as a renewable energy source.
Subd. 2a.
[ELIGIBLE ENERGY STANDARD.] Each electric utility shall generate or
procure sufficient electricity generated by an eligible energy technology to
provide its retail customers, or the retail customers of a distribution utility
to which the electric utility provides wholesale electric service, so that at
least the following percentages of the electric utility's total retail electric
sales is generated by eligible energy technologies by the end of the year
indicated:
(1) 2013 ten percent
(2) 2015 15 percent
(3) 2020 20 percent
To be counted toward satisfying the standard, energy must be
generated by a facility originally placed in service after January 1,
1975. The commission must delay or
modify the standard for an electric utility if it finds that compliance with a
standard is not in the public interest because compliance will either produce
undesirable impacts on the reliability of the utility's system or on the
utility's ratepayers or if it finds that compliance is not technically
feasible. In determining whether a
standard must be delayed or modified, the commission must consider an electric
utility's load growth as forecasted in its integrated resource plan filed under
section 216B.2422. The standard is both
an individual electric utility standard and a statewide standard so that by the
end of 2020 at least 20 percent of the electric energy provided to retail
customers in Minnesota is generated by eligible energy technologies.
(c) Subd. 2b.
[COMMISSION ORDER.] By June 1, 2004, and as needed thereafter, the
commission shall issue an order detailing the criteria and standards by which
it will measure an electric utility's efforts to meet the renewable energy
objectives and standards of this section to determine whether the utility
is making the required good faith effort and is meeting the standards. In this order, the commission shall include
criteria and standards that protect against undesirable impacts on the
reliability of the utility's system and economic impacts on the utility's
ratepayers and that consider technical feasibility.
(d) In its order under paragraph (c), the commission shall
provide for a weighted scale of how energy produced by various eligible energy
technologies shall count toward a utility's objective. In establishing this scale, the commission
shall consider the attributes of various technologies and fuels, and shall
establish a system that grants multiple credits toward the objectives for those
technologies and fuels the commission determines is in the public interest to
encourage.
Subd. 3. [UTILITY PLANS
FILED WITH COMMISSION.] (a) Each electric utility shall report on its plans,
activities, and progress with regard to these objectives and standards
in its filings under section 216B.2422 or in a separate report submitted to the
commission every two years, whichever is more frequent, demonstrating to the
commission that the utility is making the required good faith utility's
effort to comply with this section.
In its resource plan or a separate report, each electric utility shall
provide a description of:
(1) the status of the utility's renewable energy mix relative
to the good faith objective and standards;
(2) efforts taken to meet the objective and standards;
(3) any obstacles encountered or anticipated in meeting the
objective or standards; and
(4) potential solutions to the obstacles.
(b) The commissioner shall compile the information provided to
the commission under paragraph (a), and report to the chairs of the house of
representatives and senate committees with jurisdiction over energy and
environment policy issues as to the progress of utilities in the state in
increasing the amount of renewable energy provided to retail customers, with
any recommendations for regulatory or legislative action, by January 15 of each
odd-numbered year.
Subd. 4. [RENEWABLE
ENERGY CREDITS.] (a) To facilitate compliance with this section, the
commission, by rule or order, may establish a program for tradable credits for
electricity generated by an eligible energy technology. In doing so, the commission shall implement
a system that constrains or limits the cost of credits, taking care to ensure
that such a system does not undermine the market for those credits.
(b) In lieu of generating or procuring energy directly to
satisfy the renewable energy objective and standard of this section, an
electric utility may purchase sufficient renewable energy credits, issued
pursuant to this subdivision, to meet its objective and standard.
(c) Upon the passage of a renewable energy standard, portfolio,
or objective in a bordering state that includes a similar definition of
eligible energy technology or renewable energy, the commission may facilitate
the trading of renewable energy credits between states.
Subd. 5. [TECHNOLOGY
BASED ON FUEL COMBUSTION.] (a) Electricity produced by fuel combustion may only
count toward a utility's objectives or standards if the generation
facility:
(1) was constructed in compliance with new source performance
standards promulgated under the federal Clean Air Act for a generation facility
of that type; or
(2) employs the maximum achievable or best available control
technology available for a generation facility of that type.
(b) An eligible energy technology may blend or co-fire a fuel
listed in subdivision 1, paragraph (a), clause (1), with other fuels in the
generation facility, but only the percentage of electricity that is
attributable to a fuel listed in that clause can be counted toward an electric
utility's renewable energy objectives.
Subd. 6. [ELECTRIC
UTILITY THAT OWNS NUCLEAR GENERATION FACILITY.] (a) An electric utility that
owns a nuclear generation facility, as part of its good faith effort under this
subdivision and subdivision 2, shall deploy an additional 300 megawatts of
nameplate capacity of wind energy conversion systems by 2010, beyond the amount
of wind energy capacity to which the utility is required by law or commission
order as of May 1, 2003. At least 100
megawatts of this capacity are to be wind energy conversion systems of two
megawatts or less, which shall not be eligible for the production incentive
under section 216C.41. To the greatest
extent technically feasible and economic, these 300 megawatts of wind energy
capacity are to be distributed geographically throughout the state. The utility may opt to own, construct, and
operate up to 100 megawatts of this wind energy capacity, except that the
utility may not own, construct, or operate any of the facilities that are under
two megawatts of nameplate capacity.
The deployment of the wind energy capacity under this subdivision must
be consistent with the outcome of the engineering study required under Laws
2003, First Special Session chapter 11, article 2, section 21.
(b) The renewable energy objective set forth in subdivision
2 shall be a requirement for the public utility that owns the Prairie Island
nuclear generation plant. The objective
is a requirement subject to resource planning and least-cost planning
requirements in section 216B.2422, unless implementation of the objective can
reasonably be shown to jeopardize the reliability of the electric system. The least-cost planning analysis must
include the costs of ancillary services and other necessary generation and
transmission upgrades.
(c) Also as part of its good faith effort under this
section, the utility that owns a nuclear generation facility is to enter into a
power purchase agreement by January 1, 2004, for ten to 20 megawatts of biomass
energy and capacity at an all-inclusive price not to exceed $55 per
megawatt-hour, for a project described in section 216B.2424, subdivision 5,
paragraph (e), clause (2). The project
must be operational and producing energy by June 30, 2005.
Subd. 7.
[COMPLIANCE.] The commission, on its own motion or upon petition, may
investigate whether an electric utility is in compliance with its standard
obligation under subdivision 2a and if it finds noncompliance may order the
electric utility to construct facilities or purchase credits to achieve
compliance. If an electric utility
fails to comply with an order under this subdivision, the commission may impose
a financial penalty on the electric utility in an amount up to the electric
utility's estimated cost of compliance."

The bill was passed, as amended, and its title agreed to.
S. F. No. 1326 was reported to the House.
McNamara moved to amend S. F. No. 1326 as
follows:
Delete everything after the enacting clause and insert the following
language of H. F. No. 1438, the third engrossment:
"Section 1.
[89.715] [ALTERNATIVE RECORDING FOR STATE FOREST ROAD.]
Subdivision 1.
[AUTHORIZATION.] The commissioner may adopt a recorded state forest
road map under this section to record the department's state forest road
prescriptive easements. For purposes of
this section, "recorded state forest road map" means the official map
of state forest roads.
Subd. 2. [MAP
REQUIREMENTS.] The recorded state forest road map must:
(1) show state forest roads at the time the map is adopted;
(2) be prepared at a scale of at least four inches equals
one mile;
(3) include section numbers;
(4) include a north point arrow;
(5) include the name of the county and state;
(6) include a blank and a description under the blank for
the date of public hearing and date of adoption;
(7) include blanks for signatures and dates of signatures
for the commissioner; and
(8) include a list of legal descriptions of all parcels
crossed by state forest road prescriptive easements.
Subd. 3.
[PROCEDURE TO ADOPT MAP.] (a) The commissioner must prepare an
official map for each county or smaller geographic area as determined by the
commissioner as provided in subdivision 2, and set a time, place, and date for
a public hearing on adopting a recorded state forest road map to record roads.
(b) The hearing notice must state that the roads to be
recorded will be to the width of the actual use including ditches, backslopes,
fills, and maintained rights-of-way, unless otherwise specified in a prior
easement of record. The hearing notice
must be published once a week for two successive weeks in a qualified newspaper
of general circulation that serves the county or smaller geographic areas as
determined by the commissioner, the last publication to be made at least ten
days before the date of the public hearing.
At least 30 days before the hearing, the hearing notice must be sent by
certified mail to the property owners directly affected in the county or smaller
geographic areas as determined by the commissioner at the addresses listed on
the tax assessment notices at least seven days before appearing in the
qualified newspaper. The hearing notice
may be sent with the tax assessment, but all additional costs incurred shall be
billed to the department.
(c) After the public hearing is held, the commissioner may
amend and adopt the recorded state forest road map. The recorded state forest road map must be dated and signed by
the commissioner and must be recorded with the county recorder within 90 days
after the map is adopted.
(d) The recorded state forest road map that is recorded with
the county recorder must comply with the standards of the county recorder where
the state forest roads are located.
(e) A recorded state forest road map that was prepared by
using aerial photographs to establish road centerlines and that has been duly
recorded with the county recorder is an adequate description for purposes of
recording road easements and the map is the legally constituted description and
prevails when a deed for a parcel abutting a road contains no reference to a
road easement. Nothing prevents the
commissioner from accepting a more definitive metes and bounds or survey
description of a road easement for a road of record if the description of the
easement is referenced to equal distance on both sides of the existing road
centerline.
(f) The commissioner shall consult with representatives of
county land commissioners, county auditors, county recorders, and Torrens
examiners in implementing this subdivision.
Subd. 4.
[APPEAL.] (a) Before filing an appeal under paragraph (b), a person
may seek resolution of concerns regarding a decision to record a road under
this section by contacting the commissioner in writing.
(b) A person may appeal a decision to record or exclude
recording a road under this section to the district court within 60 days after
the date the commissioner adopts the state forest road map.
Subd. 5.
[UNRECORDED ROAD OR TRAIL NOT AFFECTED.] This section does not affect
or diminish the legal status or state obligations of roads and trails not shown
on the recorded state forest road map.
Subd. 6.
[EXEMPTION.] Adoption of a recorded state forest road map under this
section is exempt from the rulemaking requirements of chapter 14 and section
14.386 does not apply.
Sec. 2. [282.041]
[ALTERNATIVE RECORDING FOR COUNTY FOREST ROAD.]
Subdivision 1.
[DEFINITION.] "County forest road" means a road
constructed, acquired, maintained, or administered by the county for the
purpose of public access and management of tax-forfeited lands that have been
classified as conservation lands under this chapter.
Subd. 2.
[AUTHORIZATION.] A county board may adopt a recorded county forest
road map according to section 89.715 to record county forest road prescriptive
easements. For purposes of this
section, "recorded county forest road map" means the official map of
county forest roads.
Subd. 3.
[UNRECORDED ROAD OR TRAIL NOT AFFECTED.] This section does not affect
the legal status or county obligations of roads and trails not shown on the
recorded county forest road map."
Delete the title and insert:
"A bill for an act relating to natural resources;
