FISH & GAME LICENCING CHANGES (Duvall) |
| |
| Description: |
AB 1101, as amended, Duvall. Department of Fish and Game:
licenses and other entitlements. Department of Fish
and Game: lake and streambed alteration agreements.
Existing law prohibits a person, state or local governmental
agency, or a public utility, from substantially diverting or
obstructing the natural flow of, or substantially changing or using
any material from the bed, channel, or bank of, any river, stream, or
lake, or depositing or disposing of debris, waste, or other material
containing crumbled, flaked, or ground pavement where it may pass
into any river, stream, or lake, unless prescribed requirements are
met, including written notification to the Department of Fish and
Game regarding the activity. Existing law requires the department to
determine whether the activity may substantially adversely affect an
existing fish and wildlife resource and, if so, to provide a draft
lake or streambed alteration agreement to the person, agency, or
utility.
Existing law prescribes various requirements for lake and
streambed alteration agreements and generally prohibits the term of
an agreement from exceeding 5 years. Existing law authorizes the
department to issue an agreement for a term of longer than 5 years if
prescribed conditions are satisfied and prohibits the department
from extending an agreement for more than 5 years. Existing law
authorizes time periods related to lake and streambed alteration
agreements to be extended by mutual agreement.
This bill would additionally provide for the issuance of a lake or
streambed alteration agreement for a term longer than 5 years, and
the extension of the term of a lake or streambed alteration agreement
for more than 5 years, by mutual agreement.
Existing law requires that all licenses, permits, tags,
reservations, and other entitlements authorized by the Fish and Game
Code be prepared and issued by the Department of Fish and Game.
This bill would make technical, nonsubstantive changes to that
provision.
Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: no
yes . State-mandated local program: no.

06/13/2009 - AB 1101 failed to pass its house of origin by the June 5 deadline and is now a "two-year bill".
As such, it cannot be considered again until 2010 (except by rule waiver).
