Any junkyard which is altered, changed or enlarged after May 4, 1967, so as not to conform to the junkyard and salvage control act, and is not made to conform to the act by its owner, shall constitute a public and private nuisance and shall be subject to abatement. This provision includes both junkyard locations subject to screening at state expense and locations created after May 4, 1967. Where an owner alters, changes or expands the junkyard location after May 4, 1967, the beautification administrator may recommend that additional screening be installed at the owners expense in lieu of the abatement proceedings.

Editor's Note:

Effective August 15, 1975, the state salvage board was abolished and its powers and duties transferred to the secretary of transportation. At the secretary's request, the board's regulations were transferred to this article.
