SB: Fw: SB code for Nevada ???



Dearest Desert Baleheads,
 
We have a link on our site to the Nevada bale code that seems to be, well, lets say the code is lost somewhere in the legislative soup.  Does anyone have a correct link, or at least the current gossip about the Great State of Nevada?

In reference to your link on SB codes in Nevada:

Nevada Code mandate:
AB171, Straw Bale Guidelines from State Legislature, Rm 101, Legislative Bldg., 401 S. Carson St., Carson City, NV 89710 ...
 

Reply from my client:

Here's what's happened so far. Lisa and I went to the state legislature and looked up your reference -- AB171, Straw Bale Guidelines from State Legislature, Rm 101, Legislative Bldg., 401 S. Carson Street, Carson City, NV 89710. When I asked for AB 171 she gave me a stray animal bill from the 2001 legislative session titled AB 171. It seems the bill number, 171, simply refers to what order a certain legislative bill appears for a vote. One seventy-one occurs over and over with each legislative year.  Then, I said I was looking for building codes pertaining to straw bale construction. The only thing she could find was a bill that spoke primarily to commercial building companies on using straw bales for  government buldings (state, county, municipal, etc.). There was nothing on straw bale codes for residential construction. We spend probably 40 or 45 minutes looking and that was the only thing on record.
 

Any ideas on finding residential SB codes for Nevada ???
