Bill Summary
This bill permits 30-calendar day extensions to cure periods for certain businesses to address and resolve certain violations. Under current law, a State agency, department, or authority may suspend enforcement of any monetary fine or civil penalty, for a period of 60 calendar days, that would otherwise be imposed on a business for a first-time violation that does not or would not result in a significant adverse impact to the public safety or welfare, result in loss of income or benefits to an employee, or present the risk of environmental harm. This bill provides that the State agency, department, or authority may extend the 60-calendar day cure period an additional 30 calendar days for a business where such agency, department, or authority determines that not providing the extension would be contrary to equity and good conscience.
AI Summary
This bill allows state agencies, departments, or authorities to grant an additional 30 calendar days to a business's initial 60-day period to fix certain violations, for a total of up to 90 days. This extension can be granted if the agency determines that denying it would be unfair or unjust. This applies to first-time violations that do not pose a significant risk to public safety, welfare, employee income, or the environment, and are not criminal, intentional, or grounds for license revocation or debarment. The bill defines "business" as an entity with 50 or fewer full-time employees and lists various "State employment or labor-related laws" that are subject to these provisions.
