TO AMEND ACT 1675 OF 1972, RELATING TO THE DONALDS-DUE WEST WATER AND SEWER AUTHORITY, SO AS TO ADD TWO MEMBERS TO THE AUTHORITY APPOINTED BY THE GOVERNOR ON THE RECOMMENDATION OF THE ABBEVILLE COUNTY COUNCIL AND TO MAKE CONFORMING AMENDMENTS.

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

SECTION    1.    The fourth paragraph of Section 3 of Act 1675 of 1972, as last amended by Act 776 of 1976, is further amended to read:

"Upon the expiration of the term of office of any a member of the authority, his successor shall must be appointed by the Governor based on recommendations as follows:

(a)    Successors to members of the authority from the Due West Service Area shall must be appointed upon the recommendation of the Town Council of Due West.

(b)    Successors to members of the authority from the Donalds Service Area shall must be appointed upon the recommendation of the Town Council of Donalds.

(c)    Members and their successors of the authority from the Abbeville Service Area must be appointed upon the recommendation of the Abbeville County Council.

(d)    The successor of the member selected at large by the other members of the authority shall must be appointed on the recommendation of a majority of those other members.

In the event that If the four six members appointed from the Donalds, and Due West, and Abbeville County areas are unable to agree upon a fifth seventh member by a majority vote, the members from the Donalds area, and the Due West area, and the Abbeville area shall both select a member for recommendation, and from these two three the member to be appointed shall must be determined by lot and shall must thereupon be recommended by the authority. Vacancies shall must be filled in the manner of original selection. All members of the authority shall serve terms of three years and until successors are appointed and qualify."

SECTION    2.    The at large member of the Donalds-Due West Water Authority shall continue to serve until the expiration of his term, after which his successor must be recommended as provided in Section 3 of Act 1675 of 1972 as amended by this act.

SECTION    3.    This act takes effect upon approval by the Governor.
