For legislation relative to waterways permitting. Environment, Natural Resources and Agriculture.

AI Summary

This bill requires the Department of Environmental Protection to interpret Chapter 91 of the General Laws, which deals with waterways, in a specific way. Specifically, it states that any facility ancillary to or associated with a water-dependent use must either be directly related to the originally permitted use or be deemed necessary or essential, rather than merely reasonable, suitable, or appropriate.
