LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL’S DIGEST

AB 2764, as amended, Committee on Natural Resources. Public resources.

(1) Existing law establishes the State Lands Commission in the Natural Resources Agency and prescribes the functions and duties of the commission. Under current law, the State Lands Commission cedes concurrent criminal jurisdiction to the United States with regard to specified properties.

This bill would revise and recast these provisions and make technical and organizational changes.

(2) Existing law requires that every local trustee of granted public trust lands, as defined and except as provided, file with the State Lands Commission, on or before October 1 of each year, a detailed statement of all revenues and expenditures relating to its trust lands and trust assets, as prescribed, including obligations incurred, but not yet paid, covering the fiscal year preceding the submission of the statement.

This bill instead would require the statement to be filed with the commission on or before December 31 of each year.

(3) The California Integrated Waste Management Act of 1989, requires the Department ofbegin delete Resources, Recycling,end deletebegin insert Resources Recyclingend insert and Recovery, to initiate a program for the cleanup of solid waste disposal sites and for cleanup of solid waste at codisposal sites where no responsible party is available to pay for timely remediation, and where cleanup is needed to protect public health and safety or the environment. For purposes of this program, existing law defines “solid waste disposal,” “dispose,” or “disposal” to mean the final disposition of solid wastes onto land. Existing law establishes the Solid Waste Disposal Site Cleanup Trust Fund and provides that moneys in the fund are continuously appropriated for purposes of the program.

This bill would provide that, for purposes of the program, solid waste disposal sites may include sites located in waters of the state. By expanding the purposes of a continuously appropriated fund, the bill would make an appropriation.

(4) The Lempert-Keene-Seastrand Oil Spill Prevention and Response Act generally requires the administrator for oil spill response, acting at the direction of the Governor, to implement activities relating to oil spill response, including emergency drills and preparedness, and oil spill containment and cleanup, and to represent the state in any coordinated response efforts with the federal government. Existing law imposes various administrative civil and criminal penalties on a person that violates specified provisions of the act. The act, for purposes of specified provisions primarily under the jurisdiction of the State Lands Commission, defines marine waters to exclude waters in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Rivers and Delta, as specified.

end delete
begin delete

This bill would no longer exclude from the definition of marine waters for this purpose the waters in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Rivers and Delta and would further revise the definition of marine waters to include waterways used for waterborne commercial vessel traffic to the Port of Sacramento and the Port of Stockton. By expanding the scope of crimes within the act, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program.

begin insert(4)end insert Existing law authorizes a grant in the form of a trust of specified tidelands and submerged lands to the County of Orange, subject to certain restrictions, including that the lands remain available for public use.

This bill would modify the terms of the grant to change the conditions for expenditures by the trust and to permit the trustee to acquire additional property in order to further the purposes of the trust, if specific conditions are met.

begin insert(5)end insert Existing law establishes the State Air Resources Board, which is responsible for control of emissions from motor vehicles and is designated the air pollution control agency for all purposes set forth in federal law. Existing law requires the state board to consist of 12 members, who are appointed based on certain qualifications. Existing law provides for the compensation of those members.

This bill would correct an erroneous cross-reference to clarify that certain members of the state board are prohibited from receiving compensation for serving on the state board, but are required to be reimbursed for their actual and necessary expenses, as specified.

begin delete

(7) The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.

end delete
begin delete

This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
