Indicates Matter Stricken
Indicates New Matter

The Senate assembled at 2:00 P.M., the hour to which it stood adjourned, and was called to order by the PRESIDENT.

A quorum being present, the proceedings were opened with a devotion by the Chaplain as follows:

Ecclesiastes 3:12-13

"I know that there is nothing better for people than to be happy and to do good while they live. That each of them may eat and drink, and find satisfaction in all their toil -- this is the gift of God."

Let us pray. Almighty God, in whom we live and move and have our being, we thank You Lord for the work that we are able to do each day. We are so blessed that we live in a country that abounds in opportunity and rewards those who work hard.

We do not ask, O Lord for easy tasks, but that You will make us equal to the tasks that are set before us. May Your favor establish the works of our hands and Your Spirit guide us through difficult decisions. For it is in Your holy name that we pray, Amen.

The PRESIDENT called for Petitions, Memorials, Presentments of Grand Juries and such like papers.

COMMITTEE AMENDMENT ADOPTED, AMENDED
READ THE SECOND TIME

S. 784 (Word version) -- Senators Goldfinch and Rice: A BILL TO AMEND SECTION 48-39-280, AS AMENDED, CODE OF LAWS OF SOUTH CAROLINA, 1976, RELATING TO THE FORTY-YEAR RETREAT POLICY FROM THE SHORELINE, SO AS TO PROHIBIT THE SEAWARD MOVEMENT OF THE BASELINE AFTER DECEMBER 31, 2019.

Pursuant to the motion under Rule 32B, the Bill was taken up for immediate consideration.

The Committee on Agriculture and Natural Resources proposed the following amendment (784R001.DR.DBV), which was adopted:

Amend the bill, as and if amended, by striking all after the enacting words and inserting:

/SECTION   1.   Section 48-39-280(A) of the 1976 Code is amended to read:

"(A)   A forty-year policy of retreat from the shoreline is established. The department must implement this policy and utilize the best available scientific and historical data in the implementation. The department must establish a baseline that parallels the shoreline for each standard erosion zone and each inlet erosion zone. Subject to Section 48-39-290(D), the baseline established pursuant to this section must not move seaward from its position on December 31, 2017 2019.

(1)   The baseline for each standard erosion zone is established at the location of the crest of the primary oceanfront sand dune in that zone. In standard erosion zones in which the shoreline has been altered naturally or artificially by the construction of erosion control devices, groins, or other manmade alterations, the baseline must be established by the department using the best scientific and historical data, as where


Printed Page 1413 . . . . . Tuesday, March 13, 2018

the crest of the primary oceanfront sand dunes for that zone would be located if the shoreline had not been altered.

(2)   The baseline for inlet erosion zones that are not stabilized by jetties, terminal groins, or other structures must be determined by the department as the most landward point of erosion at any time during the past forty years, unless the best available scientific and historical data of the inlet and adjacent beaches indicate that the shoreline is unlikely to return to its former position. In collecting and utilizing the best scientific and historical data available for the implementation of the retreat policy, the department, as part of the State Comprehensive Beach Management Plan provided for in this chapter, among other factors, must consider historical inlet migration, inlet stability, channel and ebb tidal delta changes, the effects of sediment bypassing on shorelines adjacent to the inlets, and the effects of nearby beach restoration projects on inlet sediment budgets.

(3)   The baseline within inlet erosion zones that are stabilized by jetties, terminal groins, or other structures must be determined in the same manner as provided for in item (1). However, the actual location of the crest of the primary oceanfront sand dunes of that erosion zone is the baseline of that zone, not the location if the inlet had remained unstabilized."

SECTION   2.   Section 48-39-280(C) of the 1976 Code is amended to read:

"(C)   The department, before July 3, 1991, must establish a final baseline and setback line for each erosion zone based on the best available scientific and historical data as provided in subsection (B) and with consideration of public input. The baseline and setback line must not be revised before July 1, 1998, nor later than July 1, 2000. After that revision, the baseline and setback line must be revised not less than every seven years but not more than every ten years after each preceding revision. The department shall establish the baseline and setback line for all locations where the baseline and setback line were established on or before January 31, 2012. Nothing in this section allows the seaward movement of the baseline after December 31, 2017 2019. In the establishment and revision of the baseline and setback line, the department must transmit and otherwise make readily available to the public all information upon which its decisions are based for the establishment of the final baseline and setback line. The department must hold one public hearing before establishing the final baseline and setback lines. Until the department establishes new baselines and setback lines,


Printed Page 1414 . . . . . Tuesday, March 13, 2018

the existing baselines and setback lines must be used. The department may stagger the revision of the baselines and setback lines of the erosion zones so long as every zone is revised in accordance with the time guidelines established in this section."

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

Renumber sections to conform.

Amend title to conform.

Amendment No. 2

Senator GOLDFINCH proposed the following amendment (784R003.SP.GEC), which was adopted:

Amend the bill, as and if amended, by striking all after enacting words and inserting:

/     SECTION   1.   The first full paragraph in Section 48-39-280(A) prior to items (1), (2), and (3) of the 1976 Code is amended to read:

"Section 48-39-280.   (A)   A forty-year policy of retreat from the shoreline is established. The department must implement this policy and utilize the best available scientific and historical data in the implementation. The department must establish a baseline that parallels the shoreline for each standard erosion zone and each inlet erosion zone. Subject to Section 48-39-290(D), the baseline established pursuant to this section must not move seaward from its position on December 31, 2017 2019."

The baseline and setback line must not be revised before July 1, 1998, nor later than July 1, 2000.

/SECTION   _.   Section 48-39-10(B) of the 1976 Code is amended to read:

"(B)   'Coastal zone' means all coastal waters and submerged lands seaward to the State's jurisdictional limits and all lands and waters in the counties, or portions of counties, of the State which contain any one or more of the critical areas. These counties, or portions of counties, are Beaufort,; Berkeley,; Charleston,; Colleton,; Dorchester, Horry,; Jasper; and Georgetown; and that seaward portion of Dorchester County bounded beginning at the intersection of the county line and S. C. 165, then northward along S. C. 165 (Bacons Bridge Road) until its intersection with S. C. 642 (Dorchester Road), then southeastward along S.
