SUMMARY AS PASSED HOUSE: (all summaries)

Condemnation of oyster grounds. Prohibits localities from exercising the right of eminent domain to condemn privately leased riparian and general oyster planting grounds.

An exception to the condemnation prohibition is made for permitted water-dependent linear wastewater projects where there is no practical alternative. This bill is identical to SB 603.
