A BILL

TO AMEND SECTION 48-39-80, CODE OF LAWS OF SOUTH CAROLINA, 1976, RELATING TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE COASTAL MANAGEMENT PROGRAM, SO AS TO EXEMPT CERTAIN PERMITS FROM REVIEW BY THE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROL.

Amend Title To Conform

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:

SECTION    1.    Section 48-39-80(B)(11) of the 1976 Code is amended to read:

"(11)    Develop a system whereby the department shall have the authority to review all state and federal permit applications in the coastal zone, and to certify that these do not contravene the management plan. For individual navigable waters permits for docks located in the eight coastal counties but outside of critical areas, a coastal zone consistency certification is deemed approved if certification review is not completed within thirty days of an administratively complete application."

SECTION    2.    This act takes effect upon approval by the Governor.
