Signed with partial veto by Gov. Christine Gregoire on April 22, 2005

To define a management philosophy for state-owned aquatic lands. Section 210 of the bill makes non-substantive changes to RCW 79.91.100, a section of state law that was substantively amended by House Bill 1657, relating to bridges and trestles. The governor signed House Bill 1657 into law on April 14, 2005. If Section 210 of House Bill 1491 is also signed into law, it may conflict with the substantive changes made by Substitute House Bill 1657. For this reason the governor vetoed Section 210 of House Bill 1491.
