MINOR
The bill was converted from a draft version to its final enrolled form, resulting in significant reorganization of the text and the addition of new clauses. The primary substantive change is the inclusion of a new 'WHEREAS' clause that explicitly identifies specific dangerous behaviors (such as drinking alcohol, taking drugs, and lack of training) as causes of boating accidents. This addition strengthens the legislative justification for the resolution by highlighting the risks posed by untrained operators, while the core designation of the dates for Safe Boating Week remains unchanged.
Scope change
The scope of the bill's purpose remains the same, but the scope of its explanatory content was expanded to include specific behavioral risk factors.
REQUIREMENT
Added a new clause listing specific dangerous behaviors (alcohol use, drug use, lack of training) that endanger boaters.
TECHNICAL
Reorganized the text structure, moving the title and sponsor information to the top and removing the original digest and footer notes.
Corrected formatting and line breaks throughout the document to match standard enrolled legislative style.
