Whereas, in response to growing public interest in fitness, diet, and nutrition National Nutrition Week was initiated in 1973 and became a month-long observance in 1980; and

Whereas, South Carolinians spend millions of dollars annually in the pursuit of health and fitness, National Nutrition Month is dedicated to helping the public establish nutritionally sound eating habits and make informed food choices; and

Whereas, the theme of this month-long effort to increase awareness of the importance and pleasure of a healthy lifestyle is "Bite Into A Healthy Lifestyle"; and

Whereas, the South Carolina Dietetic Association is a statewide nonprofit organization with over 450 registered dietitians and nutritionists, whose members represent a range of practical areas including public health, sports nutrition, corporate wellness, diet counseling for weight management, cholesterol reduction, pediatric nutrition, eating disorders, and food service management in hospitals, long-term health care facilities, education, and research; and

Whereas, programs and services offered by the South Carolina Dietetic Association include the establishment and enforcement of standards for academic training and practice in clinical nutrition, food service management, and community dietetics. The SCDA also sponsors a number of continuing education programs for its members throughout the year; and

Whereas, the SCDA is active in recruiting students to the field of nutrition. In South Carolina, Winthrop College, Clemson University, and South Carolina State College offer four-year and six-year programs in nutrition. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:

That the month of March, 1991, is designated National Nutrition Month in South Carolina.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to Barbara McCann, M.S., R.D., president of the South Carolina Dietetic Association and chief dietitian at Orangeburg-Calhoun Regional Hospital.

H. 3675 -- Reps. Baxley, G. Brown, Gentry, McElveen, McLeod, Rudnick, M.O. Alexander, T.C. Alexander, Altman, G. Bailey, J. Bailey, K. Bailey, Baker, Barber, Beasley, Beatty, Bennett, Boan, H.

ALEX HARVIN, JR., OF CLARENDON COUNTY FOR HIS ELEVEN YEARS OF OUTSTANDING SERVICE ON THE SOUTH CAROLINA MENTAL HEALTH COMMISSION, EXTENDING BEST WISHES FOR HAPPINESS FOLLOWING HIS RETIREMENT FROM THE COMMISSION, AND DESIGNATING HIM AS VICE CHAIRMAN EMERITUS OF THE COMMISSION.

Whereas, the Honorable C. Alex Harvin, Jr., of Clarendon County has served on the South Carolina Mental Health Commission since June 5, 1980; and

Whereas, he is currently the commission's vice chairman; and

Whereas, he is retiring from the commission on July 1, 1991, as the senior and longest-serving member; and

Whereas, Mr. Harvin is the founder and the president of the Clarendon County Mental Health Association; and

Whereas, he has held almost every office in the South Carolina Mental Health Association, including serving as president of the statewide association in 1976 and 1977; and

Whereas, he also served as the chairman of the committee responsible for building the state headquarters of the South Carolina Mental Health Association; and

Whereas, he has also been very active in the National Mental Health Association and has worked closely with former First Lady Rosalyn Carter, also serving as an elector from South Carolina for her husband in the 1976 presidential election; and

Whereas, during the eleven years Mr. Harvin has served on the South Carolina Mental Health Commission, the following facilities were built or dedicated: the Frank L. Roddey Pavilion; the Patrick B. Harris Psychiatric Hospital; the Marshall A. Shearouse Pavilion; the Dowdy-Gardner Nursing Care Center; and the Richard Michael Campbell Veterans Nursing Home; and the James F. Byrnes Medical Center changed from a unit at the South Carolina State Hospital to a separate medical/surgical hospital; and

Whereas, the above facilities illustrate the commission's determination to specialize its services and provide appropriate care and treatment for the mentally ill; and

Whereas, while the above facilities were being constructed, the commission also spearheaded the efforts of the South Carolina Department of Mental Health to implement a comprehensive community mental health system which would build on the strengths of each person and provide each one an opportunity to improve his or her quality of life and attain a comfortable level of independence in the community; and

Whereas, Mr. Harvin's wisdom and steadfast leadership as a member of the commission's finance committee and then the policy committee were invaluable to the effectiveness of the commission and the administration of the department; and

Whereas, in July, 1990, Mr. Harvin fully endorsed the concept of the commission periodically holding its meetings at the department's facilities and centers in an effort to promote communication and the exchange of ideas with employees and to become more familiar with the services and programs of the department. The commission has proceeded to carry out this suggestion and has met at several facilities and centers -- to the delight and appreciation of the employees; and

Whereas, Mr. Harvin's strong sense of compassion for the mentally ill and his fervent advocacy for improvement of patient care have served as an inspiration to the management and the employees of the department; and

Whereas, his efforts, contributions, long hours, and dedication of the past eleven years deserve the thanks and commendation of the General Assembly; and

Whereas, his excellent public service also merits his designation as the vice chairman emeritus of the commission. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:

That the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina, by this resolution, commends and thanks the Honorable C. Alex Harvin, Jr., of Clarendon County for his eleven years of outstanding service on the South Carolina Mental Health Commission, extends best wishes for happiness following his retirement, and designates him as vice chairman emeritus of the commission.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to each of the following: Mr. Harvin; Dr. Joseph J. Bevilacqua, State Commissioner of Mental Health; Dr. Richard Hardin, Chairman of the South Carolina Mental Health Commission; Mr. Harvin's sister, Mrs. R. B. McDuffie; his son and our colleague in the General Assembly, the Honorable C. Alex Harvin, III; and Mr. Harvin's daughter, Mrs. Edward Rogers, Jr.

The Concurrent Resolution was agreed to and ordered sent to the Senate.

Rep. FELDER spoke against the amendment.

POINT OF ORDER

Rep. BOAN raised the Point of Order that Amendment No. 74 was out of order as it was not germane in compliance with Rule 5.3.

Rep. T.C. ALEXANDER argued contra the Point.

The SPEAKER, citing Section 15.2 on page 154 of the Bill and Section 15.13 on page 155 of the Bill, stated that it was germane to those provisions which were already included in the Bill.

Rep. BOAN stated that he was raising the Point of Order on the amendment and not the sections.

The SPEAKER stated that if the sections were already in the Bill and the amendment dealt with the same subject matter, then it was germane to the Bill. He further stated that the sections dealt with tuition and fees and the amendment dealt with tuition and fees and he overruled the Point of Order.

Rep. FELDER continued speaking.

Rep. BOAN moved that upon completion of the Ratification of Acts, the House recede until 1:30 P.M., which was agreed to.

All of the funds must be allocated based upon the number of boats or other watercraft registered in each county pursuant to law and expended, subject to the approval of a majority of the county legislative delegation, including a majority of the resident Senators, if any, for the purpose of water recreational resources. The amounts allocated must be deducted from the gross proceeds of the gasoline tax imposed under Section 12-27-230 before net proceeds to be distributed to the Department of Highways and Public Transportation and counties pursuant to Section 12-27-380 is determined. This section does not reduce the one cent per gallon license tax now being distributed to the counties pursuant to Section 12-27-380./

Section 15, as amended, was adopted.

SECTION 16--RULED OUT OF ORDER
POINT OF ORDER

Rep. HOLT raised the Point of Order that Section 16 in Part II of the Bill was out of order as it was not germane in compliance with Rule 5.3.

Rep. McABEE argued contra the Point in stating that when the Act was originally passed, there was a provision whereby the State Tax Commission could receive a percentage of these funds for the administration of the provisions of the Act and that the other funds under the Tax Commission included the amount necessary for them to do that and that it was germane because of the additional personnel required in the State Tax Commission.

The SPEAKER stated that it affected the Local Option Sales Tax Bill, but none of that money passed through the general fund and none of it had anything to do with any of the money in Part I.

Rep. McABEE furthered argued that the other funds generated or included within the budget of the Tax Commission in Part I, although they might not be general fund money, are funds that are expended and allocated in Part I.

The SPEAKER stated that none of the Local Option Sales Tax monies went through Part I and none of them were expended through the general fund. He further stated that part of them were under Title 4, Chapter 10, to go to the local sales tax and use fund and part of them went to the property tax credit fund and none of those monies are provided for in the Appropriations Bill, but rather by statute, by the Treasurer and the Tax Commission.

Rep. McABEE then inquired where the Tax Commission got the personnel in order to collect and distribute those funds back to the county.

The SPEAKER stated that that was not in Rule 5.3. He further stated, citing Rule 5.3, that it had to relate directly to the revenue in item 1 or to a rule regulation or procedure relating thereto and he sustained the Point of Order and ordered Section 16 stricken from the Bill.

SECTION 17--DEBATE ADJOURNED

Rep. KEYSERLING moved to adjourn debate upon the section, which was adopted.
