Bills Signed Establish Maryland Industrial Safety Division

Annapolis March 7 Gov McKeldin approved a bill creating a unified Division of Industrial Safety consolidating the current safety units under the Department of Labor and Industry and the Industrial Accident Commission. The measure shifts boiler rules to the department and establishes a five member safety advisory board to guide rules. Other laws signed address milk truck regulation, beer container sizes, and banning drunken hunting. A 9 member commission to study state personnel and motor vehicle tax distribution was urged, with broader calls from lawmakers on related state commissions.
