About this date
This record was last checked before the tracker date, 30 October 2026. An earlier check date does not by itself mean the record's status has changed.
Summary
Kentucky SB 319 of 2026 would have required owners of data centers built on agricultural land to file a decommissioning plan, with security, with the Energy and Environment Cabinet before operating. Its last recorded action was referral to the Senate Committee on Committees on 2 March 2026. The 2026 Regular Session adjourned sine die on 15 April 2026 without enacting it, so it did not become law.
What this does not establish
- The description relies on the Legislative Research Commission summary of the original version shown on the bill record page, not a reading of the full bill text.
- 15 April 2026 is the sine die date shown on the official 2026 Regular Session Record page; the bill page itself records no separate failure vote.
Unresolved questions
None recorded.
Relationships
Supersession means a later instrument replaces the earlier legal effect. Repeal links identify the repeal instrument and the measure it ends. A later implementation or related letter is not treated as a replacement unless the record says so.
- No related action is recorded.
