(13) NO PERSON MAY HUNT OR OCCUPY ANY
BLIND IN THE WATERS OF TALBOT COUNTY THAT IS SITUATED
WITHIN 300 YARDS OF ANY BLIND PERMANENTLY CONSTRUCTED
ON SHORE.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language and
is designed to clarify the licensing
requirements of Article 66C, sections 154,
159, and 160 for stationary blinds and
blind sites.

Subsection (a) is new language derived from
Article 66C, sections 154(e), 156(b) and
157(b) and set forth here to specifically
indicate to the Code user the required
amount of shoreline.

Subsection (b) (1) is new language derived
from section 154(a) and sets forth a
schedule for the convenience of the Code
user. Subsection (b) (2) is new language
derived from section 154(b) of the Code.
Language derived from section 154(a) is
added to show the appropriate procedure
whereby a riparian owner who owns less than
the required amount of shoreline may erect
a stationary blind. Subsection (b) (3) and
subsection (c) is derived from section
154 (d).

Subsection (d) (1) is new language. The
first sentence is added to codify the
present practice of the department. The
second sentence is derived from section
159 (b). Subsection (d) (2) is new language
derived from section 154(b). Language is
added to show the exceptions of present
sections 156(b) and 157(b). Subsection
(d) (3) is derived from section 159(d).
Language is added to these two paragraphs
to indicate that blinds must be placed
according to the distance specified by
section 10-618. Although section 159(c)
presently specifies a 300 yard distance and
159 (d) specifies a 500 yard distance, these
provisions are subject to the vagaries of
sections 156(b) and 157 (b).

Subsection (d) (4) is new language derived
from Article 66C, section 159(d).
