Public Mooring Fields

Summary

The measure requires the Department of Environmental Protection to create general permits for building and operating public mooring fields, boat ramps and related facilities, with limits such as a maximum of 100 vessels and compliance with local manatee protection plans. It also bars counties, municipalities, and special districts from applying for permits to create mooring fields outside their own boundaries or within incorporated areas, unless all local governments approve or a final non‑appealable permit is issued. The bill died in the State Affairs Committee and did not become law.
