SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)
Marine Habitat and Waterways Improvement Fund. Establishes the Fund, which is to be used for the purposes of improving marine habitat and waterways, including the removal of obstructions or hazardous property from state waters. The Fund will consist of fees, rents and royalties paid, on and after July 1, 2000, for the use or lease of or easements in state-owned bottomlands, and penalties and civil charges for violating permits and regulations regarding state-owned bottomlands. The fees, rents and royalties are currently paid into the Public Oyster Rocks Replenishment Fund, and the penalties, in the discretion of the court assessing them, are paid into local treasuries to be used for repairing damage to bottomlands. The bill also allows commercial facilities engaged in the primary business of ship construction and repair to elect to pay a one-time permit fee of up to $5,000 in lieu of other royalties. This bill has a delayed effective date of July 1, 2001.
