Title of bill
An act to amend the environmental conservation law, in relation to increasing the membership of the marine and coastal district of New York conservation, education, and research board
Purpose
The purpose of this legislation is to expand the Marine and Coastal District of New York Conservation, Education and Research Board to nine members.

Section one amends section 13-0503 of the Environmental Conservation Law by expanding the Marine and Coastal District of New York Conservation, Education and Research Board to nine members.
Justification

With the recent enactment of a marine fishing license, the board will have significantly more responsibilities.
