What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, an overnight recreational or educational camp must obtain

a license from the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection or

from the local county or municipal health department. This bill allows DATCP, or

the local health department, when issuing a renewal license to a camp, to waive any

applicable inspection requirement for two out of every three license years if the camp

has exhibited effective managerial control of public health hazards. A camp for

which the inspection requirement has been waived must comply with all other

applicable requirements for the camp, including paying any annual license fee.
