SB 979 "No wake" buoys.

Introduced by: W. Roscoe Reynolds | all patrons    ...    notes | add to my profiles | history

SUMMARY AS PASSED:

“No wake” buoys. Allows a person to apply to a local governing body for the removal of “no wake” buoys or other markers. The locality would have the responsibility for approving, disapproving or modifying the application for a buoy or marker. The application would then be forwarded to the Director of the Department of Game and Inland Fisheries for him to approve, disapprove or modify. Currently, the locality simply forwards the application to the Director. The present procedure only covers the placement of buoys, but this bill would allow an application to be filed to remove buoys or other markers. Under the bill, the cost of placing or removing a buoy or marker is to be borne by the person requesting the placement or removal of the marker.
