HCS SB 1259 -- TEMPORARY BOATER EDUCATION PERMITS

This bill allows nonresidents born after January 1, 1984, to
operate a vessel on any lake of this state with a temporary
boater education permit.  The permit may be obtained by
completing and passing a written examination developed by the
State Water Patrol and paying a $10 fee.  The temporary permit
will expire when the nonresident receives a permanent
identification card or 30 days after issuance of the temporary
permit, whichever occurs first.  Upon successful completion of
the test and prior to renting a vessel, the business entity
responsible for giving the examination will collect and forward
the fees to the water patrol.  The business entity will incur no
additional liability for the responsibility of administering the
examination.  The temporary boater permit provision has a
termination date of December 31, 2010.
