Summary

This bill creates a board responsible for organizing, promoting, and hosting a Wisconsin nuclear power summit. The board will include members appointed by various officials, including one member appointed by the chairperson of the public service commission, and will have the authority to direct expenditures of appropriated funds for summit-related purposes. The Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation (WEDC) will provide administrative support services to the board, including meeting logistics, communication services, and event coordination, with the board having final authority over how allocated funds are spent for the summit, superseding WEDC's normal board of directors' spending authority.
