Marine Resources Commission permit fees; pier application; oyster fund. Requires the submission of an application to the Marine Resources Commission for review and processing prior to the construction of a private pier by an owner of riparian land. The bill creates a nonrefundable processing fee of $100 to accompany each such application and each application submitted to the Commission for a permit to use state-owned submerged lands. The bill increases permit fees for the use of such bottomlands from $25 to $100 for projects costing no more than $10,000; increases the fees from $100 to $300 for projects costing more than $10,000 but, under the bill, no more than $500,000; and imposes a fee of $600 for a new category of projects costing more than $500,000. The bill increases the range of royalties for the removal of bottom material from $0.20-$0.60 per cubic yard to $0.40-$0.80. The bill authorizes the Commission to increase or decrease fees every three years for certain marine habitat applications, permits, leases, rents, and royalties at a rate no greater than the change in the Consumer Price Index. Finally, the bill establishes the Oyster Leasing, Conservation, and Repletion Programs Fund for the purpose of administering the Commission's oyster ground leasing program and its oyster conservation and repletion program.

Marine Resources Commission; permit fees, pier application, oyster fund.
