TO AMEND THE CODE OF LAWS OF SOUTH CAROLINA, 1976, BY ADDING SECTION 57-3-619 SO AS TO REQUIRE THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION TO IMPOSE A TOLL ALONG INTERSTATE HIGHWAY 95 WHERE IT CROSSES LAKE MARION IN EITHER ORANGEBURG COUNTY OR CLARENDON COUNTY AND TO PROVIDE FOR THE EXPENDITURE OF THE TOLL REVENUES.

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:

SECTION    1.    Article 7, Chapter 3, Title 57 of the 1976 Code is amended by adding:

"Section 57-3-619.    Notwithstanding another provision of law, the Department of Transportation shall impose a toll along Interstate Highway 95 where it crosses Lake Marion in either Orangeburg County or Clarendon County.

Once this project is completed, all future revenues collected from the imposition of this toll must be used for the maintenance, upgrade, and expansion of Interstate Highway 95 and its interchanges."
