    12 37    <Sec. ___.  Section 600C.1, Code 2009, is amended by
    12 38 striking the section and inserting in lieu thereof the
    12 39 following:
    12 40    600C.1  Grandparent and great=grandparent visitation.
    12 41    1.  The grandparent or great=grandparent of a
    12 42 minor child may petition the court for grandchild or
    12 43 great=grandchild visitation when the parent of the
    12 44 minor child, who is the child of the grandparent or the
    12 45 grandchild of the great=grandparent, is deceased.
    12 46    2.  The court shall consider a fit parent's
    12 47 objections to granting visitation under this section.
    12 48 A rebuttable presumption arises that a fit parent's
    12 49 decision to deny visitation to a grandparent or
    12 50 great=grandparent is in the best interest of a minor
    13  1 child.
    13  2    3.  The court may grant visitation to the
    13  3 grandparent or great=grandparent under this section
    13  4 if the court finds all of the following by clear and
    13  5 convincing evidence:
    13  6    a.  It is in the best interest of the child to grant
    13  7 such visitation.
    13  8    b.  The grandparent or great=grandparent has
    13  9 established a substantial relationship with the child
    13 10 prior to the filing of the petition.
    13 11    c.  That the presumption that the parent who is
    13 12 being asked to temporarily relinquish care, custody,
    13 13 and control of the child to provide visitation is fit
    13 14 to make the decision regarding visitation is overcome
    13 15 by demonstrating one of the following:
    13 16    (1)  The parent is unfit to make such decision.
    13 17    (2)  The parent's judgment has been impaired and the
    13 18 relative benefit to the child of granting visitation
    13 19 greatly outweighs any effect on the parent=child
    13 20 relationship. Impaired judgment of a parent may be
    13 21 evidenced by any of, but not limited to, the following:
    13 22    (a)  Neglect of the child.
    13 23    (b)  Abuse of the child.
    13 24    (c)  Violence toward the child.
    13 25    (d)  Indifference or absence of feeling toward the
    13 26 child.
    13 27    (e)  Demonstrated unwillingness and inability to
    13 28 promote the emotional and physical well=being of the
    13 29 child.
    13 30    (f)  Drug abuse.
    13 31    (g)  A diagnosis of mental illness.
    13 32    4.  In determining the best interest of the child,
    13 33 the court shall consider all of the following:
    13 34    a.  The prior interaction and interrelationships of
    13 35 the child with the child's parents, siblings, and other
    13 36 persons related by consanguinity or affinity, compared
    13 37 to the child's relationship with the grandparent or
    13 38 great=grandparent.
    13 39    b.  The geographical location of the grandparent's
    13 40 or great=grandparent's residence and the distance
    13 41 between the grandparent's or great=grandparent's
    13 42 residence and the child's residence.
    13 43    c.  The child's and parent's available time,
    13 44 including but not limited to the parent's employment
    13 45 schedule, the child's school schedule, the amount of
    13 46 time that will be available for the child to spend with
    13 47 siblings, and the child's and the parent's holiday and
    13 48 vacation schedules.
    13 49    d.  The age of the child.
    13 50    e.  If the court has interviewed the child in
    14  1 chambers as provided in this section regarding the
    14  2 wishes and concerns of the child as to visitation
    14  3 by the grandparent or great=grandparent or as to a
    14  4 specific visitation schedule, the wishes and concerns
    14  5 of the child, as expressed to the court.
    14  6    f.  The health and safety of the child.
    14  7    g.  The mental and physical health of all parties.
    14  8    h.  Whether the grandparent or great=grandparent
    14  9 previously has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to
    14 10 any criminal offense involving any act that resulted
    14 11 in a child being an abused child or a neglected child;
    14 12 whether the grandparent or great=grandparent previously
    14 13 has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to a crime
    14 14 involving a victim who at the time of the commission
    14 15 of the offense was a member of the family or household
    14 16 that is the subject of the current proceeding; and
    14 17 whether there is reason to believe that the grandparent
    14 18 or great=grandparent has acted in a manner resulting in
    14 19 a child having ever been found to be an abused child
    14 20 or a neglected child.
    14 21    i.  The wishes and concerns of the child's parent,
    14 22 as expressed by the parent to the court.
    14 23    j.  Any other factor in the best interest of the
    14 24 child.
    14 25    5.  For the purposes of this subsection "substantial
    14 26 relationship" includes but is not limited to any of the
    14 27 following:
    14 28    a.  The child has lived with the grandparent or
    14 29 great=grandparent for at least six months.
    14 30    b.  The grandparent or great=grandparent has
    14 31 voluntarily and in good faith supported the child
    14 32 financially in whole or in part for a period of not
    14 33 less than six months.

    29 37 complaint.
    29 38    Upon receipt of a complaint alleging a violation
    29 39 of chapter 21 or 22, the board shall do either of the
    29 40 following:
    29 41    1.  Determine that, on its face, the complaint
    29 42 is within the board's jurisdiction, appears legally
    29 43 sufficient, and could have merit.  In such a case the
    29 44 board shall accept the complaint, and shall notify the
    29 45 parties of that fact in writing.
    29 46    2.  Determine that, on its face, the complaint is
    29 47 outside its jurisdiction, is legally insufficient, is
    29 48 frivolous, is without merit, involves harmless error,
    29 49 or relates to a specific incident that has previously
    29 50 been finally disposed of on its merits by the board or
    30  1 a court.  In such a case the board shall decline to
    30  2 accept the complaint.  If the board refuses to accept a
    30  3 complaint, the board shall provide the complainant with
    30  4 a written order explaining its reasons for the action.
    30  5    Sec. ___.  NEW SECTION.  23.9  Informal assistance ==

    30  7    1.  After accepting a complaint, the board shall
    30  8 promptly work with the parties through its employees
    30  9 to reach an informal, expeditious resolution of the
    30 10 complaint.  If an informal resolution satisfactory to
    30 11 the parties cannot be reached, the board or the board's
    30 12 designee shall offer the parties an opportunity to
    30 13 resolve the dispute through mediation and settlement.
    30 14    2.  The mediation and settlement process shall
    30 15 enable the complainant to attempt to resolve the
    30 16 dispute with the aid of a neutral mediator employed and
    30 17 selected by the board, in its discretion, from either
    30 18 its own staff or an outside source.
    30 19    3.  Mediation shall be conducted as an informal,
    30 20 nonadversarial process and in a manner calculated
    30 21 to help the parties reach a mutually acceptable and
    30 22 voluntary settlement agreement.  The mediator shall
    30 23 assist the parties in identifying issues and shall
    30 24 foster joint problem solving and the exploration of
    30 25 settlement alternatives.
    30 26    Sec. ___.  NEW SECTION.  23.10  Enforcement.
    30 27    1.  If any party declines mediation or settlement or
    30 28 if mediation or settlement fails to resolve the matter
    30 29 to the satisfaction of all parties, the board shall
    30 30 initiate a formal investigation concerning the facts
    30 31 and circumstances set forth in the complaint.  The
    30 32 board shall, after an appropriate investigation, make
    30 33 a determination as to whether the complaint is within
    30 34 the board's jurisdiction and whether there is probable
    30 35 cause to believe that the facts and circumstances
    30 36 alleged in the complaint constitute a violation of
    30 37 chapter 21 or 22.
    30 38    2.  If the board finds the complaint is outside the
    30 39 board's jurisdiction or there is no probable cause to
    30 40 believe there has been a violation of chapter 21 or 22,
    30 41 the board shall issue a written order explaining the
    30 42 reasons for the board's conclusions and dismissing the
    30 43 complaint, and shall transmit a copy to the complainant
    30 44 and to the party against whom the complaint was filed.
    30 45    3.  a.  If the board finds the complaint is within
    30 46 the board's jurisdiction and there is probable cause
    30 47 to believe there has been a violation of chapter 21
    30 48 or 22, the board shall issue a written order to that
    30 49 effect and shall commence a contested case proceeding
    30 50 under chapter 17A against the respondent.  An attorney
    31  1 selected by the director of the board shall prosecute
    31  2 the respondent in the contested case proceeding.  At
    31  3 the termination of the contested case proceeding the
    31  4 board shall, by a majority vote of its members, render
    31  5 a final decision as to the merits of the complaint.  If
    31  6 the board finds that the complaint has merit, the board
    31  7 may issue any appropriate order to ensure enforcement
    31  8 of chapter 21 or 22 including but not limited to
    31  9 an order requiring specified action or prohibiting
    31 10 specified action and any appropriate order to remedy
    31 11 any failure of the respondent to observe any provision
    31 12 of those chapters.
    31 13    b.  If the board determines, by a majority vote of
    31 14 its members, that the respondent has violated chapter
    31 15 21 or 22, the board may also do any or all of the
    31 16 following:
    31 17    (1)  Require the respondent to pay damages as
    31 18 provided for in section 21.6 or 22.10, whichever is
    31 19 applicable, to the extent that provision would make
    31 20 such damages payable if the complainant had sought to
    31 21 enforce a violation in court instead of through the
    31 22 board.
    31 23    (2)  Void any action taken in violation of chapter
    31 24 21 if a court would be authorized to do so in similar
    31 25 circumstances pursuant to section 21.6.
    31 26    c.  The board shall not have the authority to remove
    31 27 a person from public office for a violation of chapter
    31 28 21 or 22.  The board may file an action under chapter
    31 29 21 or 22 to remove a person from office for violations
    31 30 that would subject a person to removal under those
    31 31 chapters.
    31 32    d.  A final board order resulting from such
    31 33 proceedings may be enforced by the board in court
    31 34 and is subject to judicial review pursuant to section
    31 35 17A.19.
    31 36    Sec. ___.  NEW SECTION.  23.11  Defenses in a
    31 37 contested case proceeding.
    31 38    A respondent may defend against a proceeding before
    31 39 the board charging a violation of chapter 21 or 22
    31 40 on the ground that if such a violation occurred it
    31 41 was only harmless error or that clear and convincing
    31 42 evidence demonstrated that grounds existed to justify
    31 43 a court to issue an injunction against disclosure
    31 44 pursuant to section 22.8.
    31 45    Sec. ___.  NEW SECTION.  23.12  Jurisdiction.
    31 46    The board shall not have jurisdiction over the
    31 47 judicial or legislative branches of state government or
    31 48 any entity, officer, or employee of those branches, or
    31 49 over the governor or the office of the governor.

    44 49 delinquent taxes, and does not become a responsible
    44 50 party by sale or transfer of property so acquired.  In

    45  2 the county.  Actual corrective action on the site
    45  3 shall be overseen by the department, the board, and
    45  4 a certified groundwater professional. Third=party

    45 16 which a no further action certificate has been issued
    45 17 pursuant to section 455B.474, when the department
    45 18 determines that an unreasonable risk to public health
    45 19 and safety may still exist or that previously reported
    45 20 upon applicable target levels have been exceeded. At
    45 21 a minimum, the agreement shall address eligible costs,
    45 22 contracting for services, and conditions under which
    45 23 sites may be reevaluated.
    45 24    l.  Costs Up to fifteen thousand dollars for the
    45 25 permanent closure of an underground storage tank
    45 26 system that was in place on the date an eligible claim
    45 27 was submitted under paragraph "a" that does not meet
    45 28 performance standards for new or upgraded tanks or
    45 29 is otherwise required to be closed pursuant to rules
    45 30 adopted by the environmental protection commission
    45 31 pursuant to section 455B.474. Reimbursement is limited

    45 39 percent of the first eighty thousand dollars of the
    45 40 total costs of corrective action for that release,
    45 41 except for claims pursuant to section 455G.21, where
    45 42 the claimant is not a responsible party or potentially
    45 43 responsible party for the site for which the claim is
    45 44 filed.
    45 45    b.  If a site's actual expenses exceed eighty
    45 46 thousand dollars, the remedial account shall pay the
    45 47 remainder, as required by federal regulations, of
    45 48 the total costs of the corrective action for that
    45 49 release, not to exceed one million dollars, except that
    45 50 a county shall not be required to pay a copayment in
    46  1 connection with a release situated on property acquired
    46  2 in connection with delinquent taxes, as provided in
    46  3 subsection 1, paragraph "d", unless subsequent to

    46 16 approved by the board as cost=effective relative to
    46 17 the department accepted monitoring plan or relative
    46 18 to the repeal date specified in section 424.19. The
    46 19 cleanup expenses incurred for work completed beyond
    46 20 what is required is the responsibility of the person
    46 21 contracting for the excess cleanup.  The board shall
    46 22 seek to terminate the responsible party's environmental
    46 23 liabilities at such sites prior to the board ceasing
    46 24 operation.
    46 25    Sec. ___.  Section 455G.9, subsection 10, Code 2009,

    46 38 expenses and for all other costs and reasonable
    46 39 attorney fees and costs of litigation for which moneys
    46 40 are expended by the fund. Any expense described in
    46 41 this subsection incurred by the fund constitutes a lien
    46 42 upon the property from which the release occurred.
    46 43 A lien shall be recorded and an expense shall be
    46 44 collected in the same manner as provided in section

    48 41    1.  a.  For the purpose of securing one or more
    48 42 issues of bonds for the fund, the authority treasurer
    48 43 of state, with the approval of the board, may authorize
    48 44 the establishment of one or more special funds, called

    49  7    c.  (3)  The payment of a redemption premium
    49  8 required to be paid when the bonds are redeemed before
    49  9 maturity.
    49 10    b.  However, money in a capital reserve fund shall
    49 11 not be withdrawn if the withdrawal would reduce the
    49 12 amount in the capital reserve fund to less than the
    49 13 capital reserve fund requirement, except for the
    49 14 purpose of making payment, when due, of principal,
    49 15 interest, redemption premiums on the bonds, and making
    49 16 sinking fund payments when other money pledged to the
    49 17 payment of the bonds is not available for the payments.
    49 18 Income or interest earned by, or increment to, a
    49 19 capital reserve fund from the investment of all or part
    49 20 of the capital reserve fund may be transferred by the
    49 21 authority treasurer of state to other accounts of the
    49 22 fund if the transfer does not reduce the amount of the
    49 23 capital reserve fund below the capital reserve fund
    49 24 requirement.
    49 25    2.  If the authority treasurer of state decides
    49 26 to issue bonds secured by a capital reserve fund,
    49 27 the bonds shall not be issued if the amount in the
    49 28 capital reserve fund is less than the capital reserve
    49 29 fund requirement, unless at the time of issuance of
    49 30 the bonds the authority treasurer of state deposits
    49 31 in the capital reserve fund from the proceeds of the
    49 32 bonds to be issued or from other sources, an amount
    49 33 which, together with the amount then in the capital
    49 34 reserve fund, is not less than the capital reserve fund
    49 35 requirement.
    49 36    3.  In computing the amount of a capital reserve
    49 37 fund for the purpose of this section, securities in
    49 38 which all or a portion of the capital reserve fund
    49 39 is invested shall be valued by a reasonable method
    49 40 established by the authority treasurer of state.
    49 41 Valuation shall include the amount of interest earned
    49 42 or accrued as of the date of valuation.
    49 43    4.  In this section, "capital reserve fund
    49 44 requirement" means the amount required to be on
    49 45 deposit in the capital reserve fund as of the date of
    49 46 computation.
    49 47    5.  To assure maintenance of the capital reserve
    49 48 funds, the authority treasurer of state shall, on
    49 49 or before July 1 of each calendar year, make and
    49 50 deliver to the governor the authority's treasurer of
    50  1 state's certificate stating the sum, if any, required
    50  2 to restore each capital reserve fund to the capital
    50  3 reserve fund requirement for that fund. Within
    50  4 thirty days after the beginning of the session of the
    50  5 general assembly next following the delivery of the
    50  6 certificate, the governor may submit to both houses
    50  7 printed copies of a budget including the sum, if any,
    50  8 required to restore each capital reserve fund to the
    50  9 capital reserve fund requirement for that fund. Any
    50 10 sums appropriated by the general assembly and paid
    50 11 to the authority treasurer of state pursuant to this
    50 12 section shall be deposited in the applicable capital
    50 13 reserve fund.
    50 14    6.  All amounts paid by the state pursuant to this
    50 15 section shall be considered advances by the state and,
    50 16 subject to the rights of the holders of any bonds of
    50 17 the authority treasurer of state that have previously
    50 18 been issued or will be issued, shall be repaid to the
    50 19 state without interest from all available revenues of
    50 20 the fund in excess of amounts required for the payment
    50 21 of bonds of the authority treasurer of state, the
    50 22 capital reserve fund, and operating expenses.
    50 23    7.  If any amount deposited in a capital reserve
    50 24 fund is withdrawn for payment of principal, premium,
    50 25 or interest on the bonds or sinking fund payments with
    50 26 respect to bonds thus reducing the amount of that fund
    50 27 to less than the capital reserve fund requirement, the
    50 28 authority treasurer of state shall immediately notify
    50 29 the governor and the general assembly of this event and
    50 30 shall take steps to restore the capital reserve fund
    50 31 to the capital reserve fund requirement for that fund
    50 32 from any amounts designated as being available for such
    50 33 purpose.

    55  3 designated to participate in the regional provider
    55  4 network for services provided to expansion population
    55  5 members.
    55  6    7.  The  department shall adopt rules to establish
