Version:

Existing law requires each vessel entering and using a harbor of safe refuge to pay the published fees for services rendered while in the harbor and to comply with all other applicable local, state, and federal laws while in the harbor and while using any facilities in the harbor. Existing law defines harbor of safe refuge as a port, harbor, inlet, or other body of water normally sheltered from heavy seas by land and in which a vessel can navigate and safely moor.

This bill would make nonsubstantive changes to the definition of harbor of safe refuge.
