Tennessee Public Chapter 530: nuclear supply-chain carry-forward

Tennessee Public Chapter 530 passed on 16 April 2025. Item 90, in Section 36, lets an unexpended nuclear energy supply-chain balance of up to $60,000,000 be carried forward, and that section takes effect upon becoming law. The governor's approval line shows 2025, and the day and month are not legible, so no calendar effective day is stored. Section 64's 1 July 2025 date is the general act date. The act records no award.

Legal and geographic scope

Public Chapter No. 530, House Bill No. 1409, an appropriations act for the fiscal years beginning 1 July 2024 and 1 July 2025. The act prints that it passed on 16 April 2025. Item 90 is in Section 36. That section says its provisions take effect upon becoming a law, and it authorizes the Department of Economic and Community Development to carry forward an unexpended nuclear energy supply-chain balance not to exceed $60,000,000, subject to funding available at 30 June 2025 and to approval by the Commissioner of Finance and Administration. Section 64 says the act otherwise takes effect on 1 July 2025, except provisions that authorize prior or immediate expenditures and any section or item that specifies an immediate effective date. The approval line names Governor Bill Lee and prints the year 2025. The day and month on that line are not legible, so no calendar effective day is stored. Item 76 authorizes stated departments to spend from the revenues and reserves of the nuclear safety fund under Tennessee Code Annotated section 65-15-114 and states no dollar amount.

Not approved or still pending

The approval day and month are not legible, so only the year 2025 is stored for the signature and no calendar effective day is stored. Section 36 takes effect upon becoming a law, so Section 64's 1 July 2025 general date is not this item's effective date. The carry-forward is subject to funding available at 30 June 2025 and to commissioner approval, and those conditions were not opened as a balance or an approval. The $60,000,000 figure is a cap on carrying forward an unexpended balance. It is not recorded as a new award or as a named recipient. Item 76 states no dollar amount. No project is linked. Two other Tennessee PDFs returned HTTP 403 and are not this record.
