A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
AN ACT TO FUND THE MILK SANITATION INSPECTION PROGRAM.
Whereas, it is in the interest of the public health and a requirement of federal public health law to maintain inspections of Grade A milk produced, transported, and distributed from and within this State; and
Whereas, limited local resources have caused a decrease in the number of local health departments that assume responsibility for Grade A milk inspections; and
Whereas, the decrease in local responsibility for inspections has increased the burden on the Department of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources to ensure that all inspections are made; Now, therefore,
The General Assembly of North Carolina enacts:
Section 1.  There is appropriated from the General Fund to the Milk Sanitation Inspection Program of the Department of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources the sum of $251,463 for the 1991-92 fiscal year and the sum of $251,463 for the 1992-93 fiscal year for personnel costs for the Milk Sanitation Inspection Program.
Sec. 2. This act becomes effective July 1, 1991.
