Section 1720 - Veto by Governor(a) Except, as provided by this chapter, no action taken at any meeting of the Delaware River and Bay Authority by a Commissioner appointed from the State of Delaware shall have any force or effect until the Governor of this State shall have an opportunity to approve or veto the same under Article VI of the Delaware-New Jersey Compact.(b) For the purpose of procuring such approval or veto, the secretary or other officer of the Delaware River and Bay Authority in charge of the minutes of the proceedings of that body shall transmit to the Governor at the Governor's office in Dover a certified copy of the minutes of every meeting of the Delaware River and Bay Authority as soon after the holding of such meeting as such minutes can be written out. The Governor shall within 10 days (Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays of this State excepted), after such minutes shall have been received at the Governor's office aforesaid, cause the same to be returned to the Delaware River and Bay Authority either with the Governor's approval or the Governor's veto of any action therein recited as having been taken by any Commissioner appointed from this State; provided, however, that if the Governor shall not return the said minutes within the said period, then at the expiration thereof any action therein recited will have full force and effect according to the wording thereof.(c) If the Governor within the said period returns the said minutes with a veto against the action of any Commissioner from this State as recited therein, then such action of said Commissioner shall be null and void. (d) The Governor may by order filed with the secretary of the Delaware River and Bay Authority relieve the Commissioners from the duty of procuring the Governor's approval of their action upon any particular matter or class of matters, and thereupon the secretary or other officer in charge of the minutes of the proceedings of that body shall be relieved of reporting the same to the Governor.17 Del.
