                       74th Regular Session

                          April 17, 1995



 TO:     Honorable Robert M. Saunders, Chair    IN RE:  House Bill No. 2148
         Committee on Land and Resource                 By: Jackson
         Management
         House of Representatives
         Austin, Texas






FROM: John Keel, Director

In response to your request for a Fiscal Note on House Bill No.
2148 (Relating to certain structures on coastal public land.)
this office has determined the following:

The bill would amend the Chapter 33 of the Natural Resources Code
to define and add  "permanently moored vessels" to the list of
structures requiring permits on coastal public lands. The bill
would repeal a provision of the statute prohibiting the School
Land Board from permitting structures in certain specified
situations involving coastal public lands.  It would also grant
the School Land Board the discretion to revoke a cabin permit on
land which is later leased for a public purpose that is not
compatible with the continued presence of a structure. The bill
would also make several other technical changes in the cabin
permitting program; however, none of these amendments would
result in any fiscal impact to the General Land Office.


No fiscal implication to the State or units of local government
is anticipated.
