| | | Emergency preamble. Whereas, acts of the Legislature do not become | | effective until 90 days after adjournment unless enacted as | | emergencies; and |
|
| | | Whereas, the 90-day period will end after the period during | | which shellfish dealer licenses are valid; and |
|
| | | Whereas, unless enacted as an emergency measure, the new | | category of license authorized in this legislation will be | | unavailable to holders of commercial shellfish licenses until | | 2007; and |
|
| | | Whereas, in the judgment of the Legislature, these facts create | | an emergency within the meaning of the Constitution of Maine and | | require the following legislation as immediately necessary for | | the preservation of the public peace, health and safety; now, | | therefore, |
|
| | | Be it enacted by the People of the State of Maine as follows: |
