A BILL

TO AMEND SECTION 12-37-712, AS AMENDED, CODE OF LAWS OF SOUTH CAROLINA, 1976, RELATING TO ACCESS TO MARINA RECORDS AND PREMISES, SO AS TO REQUIRE MARINAS TO VERIFY THE REGISTRATION INFORMATION OF ALL WATERCRAFT LEASING, RENTING, OR OTHERWISE OCCUPYING SPACE AT ITS FACILITY.

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

SECTION    1.    Section 12-37-712 of the 1976 Code, as last amended by Act 386 of 2006, is further amended to read:

"Section 12-37-712.    A marina must:

(1)    verify the certificate of number or registration information of all watercraft leasing, renting, or other occupying space at its facility; and

(2)    provide immediate access to its business records and premises to city, county, and state tax authority employees for the purpose of making a property tax assessment. For the purposes of this section, 'marina' means a facility that provides mooring or dry storage for watercraft on a leased or rental basis, and 'business records' means only the name and billing address of the person leasing or renting space for a boat in a marina, as well as the make, model, andyear and certificate of number or registration information, if available."

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