Book excerpt: Section 4(d) of 1983 House Bill No. 2327 (L. 1983, ch. 171), the new Kansas Open Records Act, provides that each request for access shall be acted upon as soon as possible, but not later than three business days following receipt of the request. Only if the request cannot be met within this time must the custodian of the records provide an explanation of the cause for further delay. In addition, the phrases "provide access to" and "permit inspection of" are used interchangeably throughout the bill, and may accordingly be treated as synonymous for purposes of interpretation. Both phrases concern the right of the public to examine public records, and so are different than the right to make copies. Cited herein: L. 1983, Ch. 171.

Book excerpt: For purposes of civil proceedings under the Code for Care of Children, the legislature defined types of behavior which would constitute sexual abuse by reference to sex offenses in the criminal code, however, it did not thereby intend to adopt a criminal definition of sexual abuse. Thus, while certain acts described as sex offenses in the criminal statutes may not be punishable crimes if committed with a child age 16 years or older; those same acts may constitute abuse of that child under the definition of that term in the Code for Care of Children.

Book excerpt: The Kansas Water Office, as the successor to the authority of the Kansas Water Resources Board, may enter into agreements with the federal government by which water may be held in storage by the state in projects constructed by agencies of the federal government. As provided by K.S.A. 1982 Supp. 82a-934, such agreements are binding upon the state to the extent that future appropriations are made in support thereof. While no applicable sections of the Kansas Constitution limit the period of time an appropriation may extend, K.S.A. 46-155 imposes a limit of at most four years for capitol improvement appropriations. As no exception has been made for water storage agreements, the Kansas Water Office is without authority to make agreements which do not contain the limiting language provided by K.S.A. 1982 Supp. 82a-934. However, as this statute does authorize the Water Office to reimburse the federal government for damages resulting from the use of, or a release from, water storage, it may agree to language which states this in a contract. Cited herein: K.S.A. 40-3405, 46-155, K.S.A. 1982 Supp. 75-4704b, 82a-934, Kan. Const., Art. 2, section 24, Art. 11, sections 6,7,9, 42 U.S.C.A. section 1962d-5b.

Book excerpt: Pursuant to K.S.A. 8-1008, as amended by 1983 Substitute for House Bill No. 2132, community-based alcohol and drug safety action programs are authorized to perform a variety of services relating to persons who have been arrested for the offense of driving while under the influence of alcohol. Included in such services are evaluations of persons being considered for diversion or who have been convicted but not yet sentenced. Certification of the programs which are authorized to so act in each judicial district is determined by the administrative judge of the district or, in the event such judge declines to do so, by the Secretary of the Department of Social and Rehabilitation Services. Such certification is for the limited purpose of providing the services specified by K.S.A. 8-1008, as amended, and does not act as a substitute for licensure under K.S.A. 65-4001 e̲t̲ s̲e̲q̲. and 65-4601 e̲t̲ s̲e̲q̲. In that diagnostic services are included within the definition of treatment contained in the latter acts, a community-based alcohol and drug safety action program must be licensed under such acts before it may offer such services under K.S.A. 8-1008, as amended.
