This bill includes a one-time General Fund appropriation of $10,000 in fiscal year 2023-24 to the Department of Marine Resources (DMR) for expenditures related to seeding clams in conjunction with a grant program for shellfish restoration projects. Without an emergency preamble and an emergency clause in the bill it will not become effective until 90 days after adjournment of the 2nd Regular Session of the 131st Legislature.
