MARVIN MANDEL, Governor                                      717

TO SEPTEMBER 15.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section presently appears as
Article 66C, section 712B of the Code. The
reference to present section 712 is
proposed for deletion since the only
provisions relating to catching hard-shell
clams in Worcester County in this revised
subtitle are derived from present section
712. The only other changes made are in
style.

4-1024. LICENSE REQUIRED FOR CATCHING HARD-SHELL
CLAMS BY SHINNECOCK RAKE IN WORCESTER COUNTY.

(A)    LICENSE REQUIRED. - ANY PERSON DESIRING TO
CATCH HARD-SHELL CLAWS BY SHINNECOCK RAKE IN THE
WATERS OF WORCESTER COUNTY SHALL APPLY TO THE
DEPARTMENT FOR A SHINNECOCK RAKE LICENSE.

(B)   APPLICATION. - EVERY APPLICANT SHALL EXHIBIT
TO THE DEPARTMENT SATISFACTORY EVIDENCE SHOWING THE
NAME OR NUMBER, AND SIZE OF THE BOAT. EACH APPLICANT
SHALL MAKE OATH OR AFFIRMATION THAT HE IS THE BONA
FIDE OWNER OF THE BOAT, THAT A NON RESIDENT OF THE

BEEN A STATE RESIDENT FOR AT LEAST ONE YEAR PRIOR TO
MAKING THE APPLICATION. THE APPLICANT SHALL SUPPLY
ANY OTHER INFORMATION THE DEPARTMENT REQUIRES.

(C)    FEE; ISSUANCE. - UPON RECEIVING THE

REVISOR'S NOTE: Subsections (a) and (b) presently
appear as Article 66C, section 712(f)(2) of
the Code. In subsection (a) the provision
requiring licenses for handscrapes is
proposed for deletion because Article 66c,
section 698(b) supersedes this provision.
Accordingly, the clam handscrape license
has been renamed "shinnecock rake" license
in subsections (a) and (c) .

subsection (c) presently appears as Article
66C, section 712(f)(3).

The only other changes made are in style.
4-1025. DISPLAY OF HARD-SHELL CLAM LICENSE.
