§ 67.070. EMERGENCY PILOTAGE RATES.

(b) In adopting emergency pilotage rates, the board is not required to comply with the procedures in this chapter or in its rules relating to adoption of pilotage rates. (c) Emergency pilotage rates may not be appealed. (d) The board shall adopt rules to carry out this section. Acts 1995, 74th Leg., ch. 165, § 1, eff. Sept. 1, 1995.
