                                       ___________
 
        Introduced by M. of A. WILLIAMS -- read once and referred to the Commit-
          tee on Environmental Conservation
 
        AN  ACT  to  amend  the  environmental  conservation law, in relation to
          shellfish regulations
 
          The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and  Assem-
        bly, do enact as follows:

     1    Section  1.  Section 13-0319 of the environmental conservation law, as
     2  amended by chapter 303 of the laws  of  1997,  is  amended  to  read  as
     3  follows:
     4  § 13-0319. Shellfish regulations.
     5    The  department  may adopt regulations with respect to the harvesting,
     6  transplanting, relaying, receiving, possessing, transporting, importing,
     7  exporting, processing, buying, selling of or  otherwise  trafficking  in
     8  shellfish;  the  labeling  or tagging thereof; the keeping of records of
     9  shellfish received, transported and distributed; the construction, oper-
    10  ation and maintenance of all shellfish handling, processing and distrib-
    11  uting establishments, including facilities and equipment and the  clean-
    12  ing,  cleansing  and water storage of shellfish.  The provisions of this
    13  section relating to transplanting  and  relaying  include  but  are  not
    14  limited  to  the removal of shellfish from uncertified growing areas and
    15  transplanting to certified  areas  for  subsequent  harvest  for  market
    16  purposes  and  transplanting  of  scallops  pursuant  to [paragraph a of
    17  subdivision 2 of] section 13-0327.   Such regulations  may  provide  for
    18  payment  of  the  reasonable  costs  of the department of supervision of
    19  removal of shellfish from uncertified areas, except where  such  removal
    20  is  being  undertaken  by  a municipality or political subdivision. Such
    21  regulations shall be drawn in such a manner as to provide adequate sani-
    22  tary control over all shellfish offered for sale and distribution in the
    23  state. Such regulations shall not be less restrictive than  the  minimum
    24  requirements  of  any federal agency regulating the inter-state shipment
    25  of shellfish.
    26    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
