	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 2930, Torlakson.   Delta Protection Commission.
   The existing Johnston-Baker-Andal-Boatwright Delta Protection Act
of 1992 establishes the Delta Protection Commission, and prescribes
the membership of the commission.  The act provides that the term of
office of members of the commission is 4 years, and prohibits a
member from serving more than 2 terms.  The act also provides for the
abolition of the commission on January 1, 2010.
   This bill would delete the 2-term limit for members of the
commission, and instead, would permit a member to serve for one or
more consecutive terms.
   This bill would also repeal the provision abolishing the
commission on January 1, 2010.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:


  SECTION 1.  Section 29736 of the Public Resources Code is amended
to read:
   29736.  The term of office of the members of the commission shall
be for four years, and a member may serve for one or more consecutive
terms.
  SEC. 2.  Section 29759 of the Public Resources Code is repealed.
