         SECTION 1.  Section 2206.154, Government Code, is amended by
  amending Subsection (a) and adding Subsections (b-1) and (b-2) to
  read as follows:
         (a)  Except as provided by Subsections [Subsection] (b) and
  (b-1), not later than February 1 of each year, an entity described
  by Section 2206.151 shall submit to the comptroller a report
  containing records and other information specified by this
  subchapter for the purpose of providing the comptroller with

  manner prescribed by the comptroller.

  current annual reporting period the political subdivision's
  eminent domain authority information is the same as the information
  reflected for the political subdivision in the eminent domain
  database for the previous annual reporting period, the political
  subdivision, not later than February 1 of the current annual
  reporting period, shall confirm the accuracy of the information by
  electronically updating the political subdivision's previously
  filed report with the comptroller in the manner prescribed by the
  comptroller.
