HARRY HUGHES, Governor

1817

Subsection (e)(l)(ii) of this section, which
refers to the Department's power to refuse to
grant a temporary fuel variance, is new language
added to state explicitly a power that formerly
was only implied.

The first sentence of former Article 43, §
698A(f), which referred to the duty of the
Department to act "expeditiously" after reviewing
the petition and hearing record, is deleted as
unnecessary.

2-504. EXTENSION.

THE DEPARTMENT MAY GRANT AN EXTENSION OF A TEMPORARY
FUEL VARIANCE FOR AN ADDITIONAL PERIOD OF NOT MORE THAN 60
DAYS, IF THE PETITIONER GIVES THE DEPARTMENT ADDITIONAL
INFORMATION THAT JUSTIFIES THE EXTENSION.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from the second
sentence of former Article 43, § 698A(e).

2-505. DUTY OF PETITIONER.

EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO GIVE EFFECT TO THE
TEMPORARY FUEL VARIANCE, A PETITIONER WHO IS GRANTED A
TEMPORARY FUEL VARIANCE SHALL COMPLY WITH ANY APPLICABLE
LAW, RULE, OR REGULATION, AND WITH ANY ORDER, PERMIT, OR
OTHER TEMPORARY FUEL VARIANCE PREVIOUSLY ISSUED OR GRANTED
UNDER THIS TITLE.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from the second
sentence of former Article 43, § 698A(f).

SUBTITLE 6. ENFORCEMENT; PENALTIES.

2-601. USE OF FACILITIES FOR ENFORCEMENT.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT POSSIBLE, THE DEPARTMENT SHALL
USE THE FACILITIES AND SERVICES OF APPROPRIATE AGENCIES OF
POLITICAL SUBDIVISIONS TO ENFORCE THE STANDARDS SET UNDER
THIS TITLE.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from the first
sentence of former Article 43, § 693(c).

The term "political subdivisions" is substituted
for "the jurisdictions within the areas" in light
of the definition of "political subdivision" in §
2-101 of this title.
