(B) SECRETARY TO REPORT ON PROPOSAL; GOVERNOR TO

PROPOSAL, THE SECRETARY SHALL REPORT TO THE GOVERNOR
HIS RECOMMENDATIONS AS TO THE SUITABILITY OR
NONSUITABILITY OF EACH AREA FOR PRESERVATION AS A
STATE WILDLAND. THE GOVERNOR, WITHIN SIX MONTHS AFTER
RECEIVING THE RECOMMENDATIONS FROM THE SECRETARY,
SHALL ADVISE THE PRESIDENT OF THE SENATE AND SPEAKER
OF THE HOUSE OF DELEGATES OF HIS RECOMMENDATION WITH
RESPECT TO THE DESIGNATION AS WILDLAND OF EACH AREA ON
WHICH REVIEW HAS BEEN COMPLETED. A RECOMMENDATION OF
THE GOVERNOR FOR DESIGNATION AS A STATE WILDLAND SHALL
BECOME EFFECTIVE ONLY IF PROVIDED BY AN ACT OF THE
GENERAL ASSEMBLY.

REVISOR'S NOTE: These subsections presently appear
as Article 66C, section 345B (f) of the Code.
The "s" in "maps" is proposed for deletion in
light of Article 1, section 8, wherein
reference to the singular is deemed to
include the plural unless the context is
unreasonable. The second sentence of
subsection (a) is proposed for deletion as
obsolete because the Secretary already has
prescribed the form. For purposes of clarity
this section has been divided into two
subsections. The only other changes made are
in style.
