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

Article - Natural Resources

1-107.

(A)  Any person aggrieved by any decision, action, or
failure to act on the part of the Secretary or any unit within
the Department for which an appeal to the Board of Review of the
Department of Natural Resources is provided by § 1-106 of this
article, and the rules and regulations adopted pursuant thereto,
is entitled to appeal within the period established by rule or
regulation of the Board and in the manner set forth below.

(B)  Prior to the commencement of an appeal, the person
aggrieved shall make known the basis of his complaint to the
individual responsible for the decision, action, or nonaction
complained of, together with a request for review. If a
resolution satisfactory to the person aggrieved has not occurred
within 30 days thereafter, the complainant may proceed as
follows:

(1)  Within the period established by rule or
regulation of the Board of Review he shall file a written
statement concisely setting forth the nature of the complaint and
the relevant facts and circumstances. The complaint shall be
filed with the chief executive officer of the unit to which the
application for review is made or, if there is no chief executive
officer, with any member of the unit's governing body. If the
individual responsible for the decision is the chief executive
officer of the unit, it is not necessary to follow the procedures
prescribed in this paragraph. Receipt of the complaint shall be
promptly acknowledged in writing and a copy transmitted to the
Secretary. The unit shall investigate the complaint. Subject to
extensions of time on which the parties agree, a decision shall
be rendered in writing and a copy sent to the complainant within
30 days of the filing of the complaint. A record shall be kept of
all complaints and their disposition. The record shall be open to
public inspection during regular business hours.

(2)  A party aggrieved by an adverse decision, action,
or failure to take action within the time prescribed by this
section may file an appeal to the Board of Review of the
Department of Natural Resources.

(C)  IN CASES WHERE THE APPEAL TO THE BOARD IS FROM A
DECISION BY A UNIT OR OFFICIAL IN A CONTESTED CASE, AS DEFINED IN
THE ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURE ACT, THE BOARD SHALL HEAR THE APPEAL
