Assembly Bill 1220 (2007) c. 373
Some bill research does not include the Governor's file because at the time we researched the bill, the sitting Governor had not released his chaptered bill file. If the Governor's file is not included with this particular research, please contact our office (1-530-666-1917 or quote@legintent.com) and we will be happy to provide this file at no charge if it is available. Please Note: Governor files did not exist prior to 1943.
AB 1220, c. 373: Oil spill response fund. Clarifies that any state borrowing of monies to clean up an oil spill must be repaid by the assessment of fees on distributors, pipeline operators, refiners, and marine terminal operators. Increases the "cap" on how much money may be requested for appropriation by the Legislature for the state's Oiled Wildlife Care Network (OWCN). Revises definition of marine fueling facilities regulated by the Office of Oil Spill Prevention and Response (OSPR) and decreases the frequency of training or testing of a marine facility's oil spill contingency plan. Eliminates defunct provisions indemnifying an owner of a nontank vessel who contracts for oil spill response services with a nonprofit maritime association.
