 17 (a) the office of renewable energy siting shall notify the legislative
 18 bill drafting commission upon the occurrence of such determination made
 19 by the federal aviation administration to allow for the coloring of wind

 22 the state of New York in furtherance of effecting the provisions of
 23 section 44 of the legislative law and section 70-b of the public offi-
 24 cers law; and
 25 (b) the amendments to subdivision 1 of section 138 of the public
 26 service law made by section one of this act shall not affect the repeal
 27 of such section and shall be deemed repealed therewith.
