Specifies that the exemption from the Cap-and-Invest Program for emissions from a certain coal-fired electric generation facility (coal facility) applies only to those emissions before January 1, 2026. Removes the limitation on state agencies and political subdivisions of the state from imposing greenhouse gas emission requirements on a coal facility that are inconsistent with or in addition to the Greenhouse Gas Emissions Performance Standard or the memorandum of agreement between the Governor and the coal facility. Repeals sales and use tax exemptions for coal used at a coal facility placed in operation after December 3, 1969, and before July 1, 1975.
