Boiler Inspection Bill, SF 2280, Passes


SF 2280 has been passed by the Iowa Legislature and will be sent to Governor Branstad for his signature. This bill extends the inspection period for unfired pressurized steam vessels from 2 to 4 years.

The bill was passed by both the Senate and the House of Representatives unanimously. Once signed into law, fertilizer plants will achieve increased production thru-put. Additionally, fertilizer producers will realize significant cost savings without jeopardizing public or worker safety.

AAI supported SF 2280 and worked with member representatives to secure its passage and is pleased with this outcome. AAI and our lobbying team is confident that Governor Branstad will sign the bill and have left messages with his office that the bill is great policy and regulatory reform and should be signed.
