WILLIAM DONALD SCHAEFER, Governor

Ch. 3

Similarly, the designee would be, in most instances, a
State officer or employee and recompensed as such
under other statutes.

In subsection (a) of this section, the former
provision that called for a quorum of 5 members of the
Board is restated, without substantive change, in more
general language that refers to "[a] majority of the
authorized membership of the Board". This language
conforms to similar provisions in other titles of this
article and will accommodate possible future
legislative changes in the number of members to be
appointed to the Board, without the necessity of
enacting a conforming change here. As to the
"authorized membership" of the Board, see § 11-202(a)
of this subtitle.

In the introductory language of subsection (c)(1) of
this section, the limitation "[s]ubject ... to the
State budget" is added to reflect that special funds
are subject to the usual budgetary restrictions.

In subsection (c)(1)(ii) of this section, the former
reference to "reasonable traveling" expenses "in
attending meetings" is deleted as unnecessary in light
of the reference to the "Standard State Travel
Regulations". See SF § 10-203 and COMAR 23.02.01.01
through 12.

Defined terms: "Board" § 11-101
"Secretary" § 1-101

11-205. MISCELLANEOUS POWERS AND DUTIES.

(A)  POWERS.

IN ADDITION TO ANY POWERS SET FORTH ELSEWHERE, THE BOARD MAY
ADOPT REGULATIONS AND PASS ORDERS TO GOVERN AND REGULATE LICENSED
PILOTS.

(B)  DUTIES.

SHALL:

(1)  ADOPT A SEAL; AND

(2)  BE RESPONSIBLE FOR SAFETY IN PROVIDING PILOTAGE.

REVISOR'S NOTE: Subsections (a) and (b)(2) of this section
are new language derived without substantive change
from former Art. 74, § 7(b) and the first clause of
(a)(1).
