Bill summary

House amendments make the following changes to the 3rd edition.

Amendment #1 modifies proposed GS 90-187.3A regarding comity for out-of-state veterinarians and international veterinarians for an international equestrian event. Prohibits the NC Veterinary Medical Board from charging an application fee for the issuance of a license under the statute (previously, required payment of the $150 fee authorized in GS 90-186(6)(e) for issuance). Removes the provision limiting a license issued under (b) to only for treating a horse previously in the nonresident veterinarian's care.

Makes a technical correction to proposed GS 106-701(a3).

Amendment #2 further amends GS 106-741 regarding record notice of a tract's proximity to farmlands. Adds new subsection (d), establishing immunity for realtors and appraisers licensed under GS Chapters 93A or 93E for failure to report to any person the proximity of a tract to a qualifying farm or voluntary agricultural district as defined in Article 61.
