HARRY HUGHES, Governor                                     1127

FOR the purpose of extending until a certain date the
authorization to the Governor of certain powers during
energy crisis emergency situations.

BY repealing and reenacting, with amendments,

Article 41 - Governor - Executive and Administrative

Departments
Section 15B(c-l)(l)
Annotated Code of Maryland
(1982 Replacement Volume and 1984 Supplement)

SECTION 1. BE IT ENACTED BY THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF
MARYLAND, That the Laws of Maryland read as follows:

Article 41 - Governor - Executive and Administrative

Departments

15B.

(c-1) (1) As used in this subtitle, but only until July 1,
[1985] 1987, "crisis," "disaster," "catastrophe," and "or similar
public emergency" also refers to a situation where the health,
safety, or welfare of the citizens of this State are threatened
by reason of an actual or impending acute shortage in usable
energy resources. Upon reasonable apprehension that such a
crisis, disaster, catastrophe, or similar public emergency
exists, the Governor may proclaim a state of emergency. In that
event the Governor's orders, rules, and regulations, promulgated
as provided in this subtitle, may also include, by way of further
enumerated example rather than limitation, and notwithstanding
any other provision or limitation of State or local law:

(i) Provisions for the establishment and

implementation of programs, controls, standards, priorities, and

quotas for the allocation, conservation, and consumption of
energy resources;

(ii) The suspension and modification of
existing standards and requirements affecting or affected by the
use of energy resources, including those relating to air quality
control, the type and composition of various energy resources,
the production and distribution of energy resources, and the
hours and days during which public buildings and commercial and
industrial establishments may or are required to remain open;
and/or

(iii) The establishment and implementation of
regional programs and agreements for the purposes of coordinating
the energy resource programs and actions of the State with those
of the federal government and of other states and localities.
