A BILLer>h3>
TO AMEND THE CODE OF LAWS OF SOUTH CAROLINA, 1976,
BY ADDING SECTION 50-21-180 SO AS TO PROVIDE
REQUIREMENTS FOR PUBLIC BOATING ACCESS FACILITIES.
Whereas, public boating access facilities provided by the State and local
governing bodies are essential for access to public waterways. These
facilities support our state's recreational and tourism industry; and
Whereas, public boating access facilities provide emergency access to
waterways during severe weather and for law enforcement search and
recovery. Now, therefore,
Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:
SECTION 1. The 1976 Code is amended by adding:
"Section 50-21-180. Plans to improve existing public boating
access facilities or to construct new facilities must be based on an
appropriate boating needs assessment study by the Wildlife and Marine
Resources Department and must be designed to meet the identified need
in accordance with recognized engineering design for the facilities.
Reasonable measures must be taken to avoid and minimize impact to the
environment including, but not limited to, appropriate erosion control
and stormwater management to the extent the measures are consistent
with the intended use of the facility. Public boating access facilities
which meet the requirements of this section are deemed to be consistent
with applicable law and regulations governing the design and
construction of these facilities without further modifications."
SECTION 2. This act takes effect upon approval by the Governor.
