House amendment to the 1st edition makes the following changes. Amends GS 143-215.27 to clarify that nothing in new GS 143-215.27(e) which prohibits the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) from withholding the approval of an application for repair or alteration of a phased compliance eligible dam only because the proposed repair or alteration will not bring the dam into full compliance with the Dam Safety Law of 1967 (Law) and related implementation rules under certain circumstances, will be construed to restrict DEQ's authority to approve applications to repair or modify dams that do not meet the criteria of a phased compliance eligible dam.

Bill S 531 (2023-2024)Summary date: Apr 3 2023 - View Summary
Amends GS 143-215.27 by prohibiting the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) from withholding the approval of an application for repair or alteration of a phased compliance eligible dam only because the repair or alteration will not fully meet the requirements of the Dam Safety Law of 1967 (Law) and related implementation rules if the project will not increase the height or impoundment capacity of the dam and it will not increase the risk to human life or property. Amends GS 143-215.25 by defining a phased compliance eligible dam as a dam that (1) is categorized as high hazard by DEQ; (2) was constructed prior to January 1, 1968; and (3) is not owned by a unit of local government, special district, or public authority, as those terms are defined in GS 159-7.
