ACTS AND RESOLUTIONS OF THE
GENERAL ASSEMBLY
OF THE
STATE OF GEORGIA
__________
2013
__________
COMPILED AND PUBLISHED BY AUTHORITY OF THE STATE
Volume Three Index and Miscellaneous

COMPILER'S NOTE
General Acts and Resolutions of the 2013 Regular Session of the General Assembly of Georgia will be found in Volume One beginning at page 1. The Supplementary Appropriations Act for FY 2012-2013 and the Appropriations Act for FY 2013-2014 will be found in the Volume One Appendix. These two Acts have been separately placed in the Appendix in order to maintain the special formatting and unique characteristics of the underlying bills. Local and Special Acts and Resolutions will be found in Volume Two beginning at page 3501. Home rule actions by counties and consolidated governments and by municipalities filed in the Office of the Secretary of State between June 1, 2012, and May 30, 2013, are printed in Volume Two beginning at pages 4519 and 4579, respectively.
There are no numbered pages between page 1111, the last page of Volume One and page 3501, the first page of Volume Two. This allows both volumes to be prepared simultaneously. The only page numbers in the Volume One Appendix will be those appearing in the underlying bills.
Indexes; lists of Acts, Bills, and Resolutions and their Georgia Laws page numbers; material related to courts; population charts; lists of members of the General Assembly; referendum results; and the Governor's veto message are printed in Volume Three. Indexes cover material in both Volumes One and Two. The tabular indexes list matter by broad categories. The general index is a detailed alphabetical index by subject matter. When possible, general Acts have been indexed by reference to the titles of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated which they amend and the tabular index contains a list of Code sections which have been amended, enacted, or repealed.
Each Act and Resolution is preceded by a caption written by the compilers of the Georgia Laws solely to assist the reader in quickly determining the subject matter of the Act or Resolution. With the exception of House Resolution 4, this caption includes the Act number assigned by the Governor and the House or Senate Bill or Resolution number which it was given when it was introduced in the General Assembly. These captions are not part of the Act or Resolution when they are enacted or adopted by the General Assembly. Each Act or Resolution which was signed by the Governor is followed by the approval date on which it was signed by the Governor. House Resolution 4 became law without the approval of the Governor pursuant to Article III, Section V, Paragraph XIII, of the Constitution of the State of Georgia and was not assigned an Act number.

GOVERNOR'S PROCLAMATIONS AND VETOES

VETO NUMBER 1

HB 635 House Bill 635 changes the term of office and membership of the Dodge County-Eastman Development Authority by terminating the two members appointed by the Heart of Georgia Regional Airport authority and allowing the Dodge County Board of commissioners to appoint one member and the bill sponsor to appoint one member. Having reviewed the legislation and considered its necessity, I VETO HB 635.

VETO NUMBER 2

HB 636 House Bill 636 abolishes the Heart of Georgia Regional Airport Authority and transfer the Authority's powers, duties, assets, liabilities and debts to the Dodge County-Eastman Development Authority. Having reviewed the legislation and considered its necessity, I VETO HB 636.

VETO NUMBER 3

HB 193 House Bill 19 attempts to bring back input exemptions that had previously been sunset. The 2010 Special Council on Tax Reform and Fairness for Georgians recommended "that all non-government and non-business input exemptions sunset so that the legislature may determine if economic or non-economic justifications exist for renewing these exemptions." In following their recommendation, I will request the Governor's Competitiveness Initiative taskforce to review this bill and provide an opinion on whether economic or non-economic justifications exist for the exemptions to be renewed during the next legislative session. Accordingly, I VETO HAB 193.

VETO NUMBER 4

HB 240 House Bill 240 attempts to address concerns voiced by speech language pathologists that clinical fellows are not reimbursed by Georgia Medicaid. However, Georgia Medicaid only enrolls fully license providers for reimbursement. On close review, this legislation would expand the number of eligible providers that could bill for Medicaid reimbursement and open the door for additional providers, who are not yet fully licensed, to pursue similar legislation. The Georgia Medicaid budget has been under tremendous financial pressure and any additional expenses will increase the financial burden. In addition, the legislation would require Georgia Medicaid to reimburse Clinical Fellows at 100% of the Speech Language Pathologist rate which would create an inequity among other fully license provider types who are reimbursed at less than 100%. I am vetoing this legislation because I believe HB 240 creates an inequitable system of reimbursement among provider groups. I also find that this legislation would open the door for similarly situated non-licensed providers to seek Medicaid reimbursement. Accordingly, I VETO HB 240.

GEORGIA LAWS 2013 SESSION

381A

VETO NUMBER 5

SB 11

Senate Bill 11 would re-establish the Georgia Geospatial Advisory Council and

give that council various powers and duties to evaluate and develop data on the geospatial

capabilities and needs of the State. Despite any underlying merits of the bill, this legislation

would create a new state entity and add additional duties to various state agency officials

without funding in the 2014 budget. Having grave concerns with adding a new council and

duties for state agency officials without funding, I VETO SB 11.

SIGNING STATEMENT 1

HB 276 I sign House Bill 276 because of the merits of Sections 1 and 2 which pertain to the extension of the Georgia Hazardous Waste Trust Fund. However, I have significant concerns with the remaining language in the bill which attempts to dedicate fees and surcharges of this fund for a specific purpose. Despite the merits of such a concept, Article 3, Section 9, Paragraph 6 of the Constitution of Georgia specifically limits any attempt to dedicate revenues in a general bill unless specifically permitted by the Constitution of Georgia. Without such specific permission in our Constitution, I would deem this language in House Bill 276 as being non-binding on any subsequent General Assembly as it goes about its yearly duty to appropriate funds.

SIGNING STATEMENT 2

SR 293

I sign Senate Resolution 294 but I have reservations renaming Friendship Road
