President of the Senate

Annapolis MD 21401

Dear Mr. President:

In accordance with Article II, Section 17 of the Maryland Constitution, I have today
vetoed Senate Bill 215.

This bill extends the sunset date for the State Board of Well Drillers from July 1, 2001
to July 1, 2011.

House Bill 454, which was passed by the General Assembly and signed by me on April
27, 1999, accomplishes the same purpose. Therefore, it is not necessary for me to sign
Senate Bill 215.

Sincerely,

Parris N. Glendening

Governor
