The bill, S. 905, is a joint resolution introduced in the South Carolina Senate to approve regulations proposed by the Department of Natural Resources concerning Shellfish Permit Applications, specifically designated as Regulation Document Number 5439. The resolution states that the regulations, which are submitted in accordance with Article 1, Chapter 23, Title 1 of the South Carolina Code of Laws, are approved by the General Assembly. The resolution will take effect upon the Governor's approval.

The proposed amendments to Regulation 123-34(B) include the establishment of a new section, 124-34(B)(2), which sets an expiration date for permit applications that do not receive a decision, request for additional information, or any official correspondence from the agency within twelve months of submission. This change aims to streamline the permit application process and ensure timely responses from the Department of Natural Resources.
