Section 1.Amend §3603(c) of Title 24 of the Delaware Code by striking the last sentence of the subsection.

Section 2. Amend §3603(d) of Title 24 of the Delaware Code by striking subsection (d) in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

"(d) A person who has never served on the Board may be appointed for 2 consecutive terms. No person who has been twice appointed to the Board or has served on the Board for 6 years shall again be appointed until an interim period of at least 1 year has expired since the person last served. This section shall not apply to the State Geologist or the State Geologist's designee who shall be appointed by the Governor to serve at the pleasure of the Governor with no term limits."
