  1. Amend page 7, line 25, by striking out all of subsection (4) and inserting:
  
  “ (4) All of the following apply to the provision of pupil instruction:
  
  (a) Except as otherwise provided in this subsection, the first 6 days or the equivalent number of hours for which pupil instruction is not provided because of conditions not within the control of school authorities, such as severe storms, fires, epidemics, utility power unavailability, water or sewer failure, or health conditions as defined by the city, county, or state health authorities, are counted as hours and days of pupil instruction.
  
  (b) In addition to the 6 days under subdivision (a), with the approval of the superintendent of public instruction, the department shall count as hours and days of pupil instruction the days and the equivalent number of hours for which pupil instruction is not provided that are included in a period for which the governor has issued an executive order declaring a state of emergency if all of the following requirements are met:
  
  ( i ) Subject to subsection (14), the district provides its hourly employees the full compensation that they would have been entitled to had they worked for the period during which pupil instruction was not provided as described in this subdivision. This subparagraph does not apply to an hourly employee covered by a collective bargaining agreement or employment agreement that is ratified after the effective date of the amendatory act that added this subparagraph or an hourly employee who is employed by the district after the effective date of the amendatory act that added this subparagraph.
  
  ( ii ) The district provides written documentation to the department that its hourly employees described under subparagraph ( i ) to whom subparagraph ( i ) applies received full compensation as required under subparagraph ( i ).
  
  ( iii ) Part or all of the district is located in a geographic area for which an executive order described under this subdivision applies.
  
  (c) With the approval of the superintendent of public instruction, the department shall count as hours and days of pupil instruction for a fiscal year not more than 3 additional days or the equivalent number of additional hours for which pupil instruction is not provided in a district due to unusual and extenuating occurrences resulting from conditions not within the control of school authorities such as those conditions described in subdivision (a).
  
  (d) For 2018-2019 only, if a district does not provide pupil instruction for greater than 14 days due to conditions described under this subsection, including those days counted as days of pupil instruction under this subsection, but the district does provide at least the required minimum number of hours of pupil instruction, the district is not subject to the minimum number of days of pupil instruction requirement of this section. The exception in this subdivision only applies to a district if both of the following are met:
  
  ( i ) In providing the minimum number of hours of pupil instruction required under this section, the district adds pupil instruction time to a scheduled day in at least 30-minute increments.
  
  ( ii ) The district meets the requirements under subdivision (b), as applicable. ”.
  
  2. Amend page 14, following line 9, by inserting:
  
  “ (14) A district is not subject to the requirements under subsection (4)(b)( i ) and ( ii ) if either of the following are met:
  
  (a) The district has a collective bargaining agreement with a bargaining representative of its hourly employees, or has an employment agreement with an hourly employee, that is in effect as of the effective date of the amendatory act that added this subsection that explicitly addresses compensation regarding periods during which pupil instruction is not provided due to inclement weather or other emergency.
  
  (b) The district demonstrates to the department that it has provided its hourly employees with compensation or a benefit in lieu of compensation based on a written agreement with the bargaining representative or employee, as applicable, for periods during which pupil instruction is not provided as described under subsection (4)(b). ”.
