Standards of net weight, measure, or count.

Technical and reporting procedures and the report and record forms and marks of approval and rejection to be used by inspectors in the discharge of their official duties.

Exemptions from the sealing or marking requirements of section 14 with respect to weights and measures of the character or size that the sealing or marking would be inappropriate, impractical, or damaging to the apparatus in question.

With respect to classes of weights and measures determined by the director to be of a character that frequent retesting is unnecessary to continued accuracy, exemptions from the requirements of sections 9 and 10 for testing and schedules fixing the frequency of required retests for classes of devices so exempted.

The voluntary regulation and registration of registered service persons and registered service agencies.

Standards for automatic checkout systems.

The director shall promulgate rules that provide for specifications, tolerances, and regulations for weights and measures specified in section 10 that are designed to eliminate from use, without prejudice to apparatuses that conform as closely as practicable to the official standards, those apparatuses that are not accurate, that are of such construction so as not to be reasonably permanent in their adjustment or will not repeat their indications correctly, or that facilitate the perpetration of fraud.

Redistricting plan; principles.
Status: in_force

Sec. 4a.

All of the following apply to the redistricting plan in section 1a:

(a) The number of county breaks in the redistricting plan is determined by the following principles:

( i ) Breaking a county line means assigning part of the population of a county to 1 or more counties in the formation of a district.

( ii ) If population is shifted from a county to a single election district, including a district from 2 geographically separate areas, there is 1 break. Except as provided in subparagraph ( iii ), if population from a county is shifted to 2 or more election districts, there are 2 or more breaks.

( iii ) If 1 part of a county is shifted to a district and the rest of the county is shifted to another district, there is 1 break.

(b) The redistricting plan was designed to comply fully with both section 2 of the voting rights act of 1965, 42 USC 1973, and the requirements of the equal protection clause of amendment XIV of the constitution of the United States, as set forth in Shaw v Reno, 509 US 630 (1993), and subsequent cases concerning racial gerrymandering. In light of these dual obligations, the plan avoids any practice or district lines that result in the denial of any racial or ethnic group's equal opportunity to elect a representative of its choice and, at the same time, does not subordinate traditional redistricting principles for the purpose of accomplishing a racial gerrymander or creating a majority-minority district. As a consequence, the plan does not result in retrogression or dilution of minority voting strength, particularly in light of the demographic limitations caused by relative population losses and the neutral criteria set forth in section 3 of the congressional redistricting act, 1999 PA 221, MCL 3.63. However, the plan does not sacrifice traditional neutral principles, such as, most importantly, preservation of county and municipal boundaries, for the purpose of engaging in a gerrymander that unnecessarily favors 1 racial group over others.

(c) The redistricting plan for congressional districts consists of 14 single-member districts composed of convenient territories contiguous by land.
