Louisiana House Bill HB241 Comm Sub / Analysis

                    RÉSUMÉ DIGEST
ACT 430 (HB 241) 2016 Regular Session	Zeringue
Prior law required the Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority (CPRA) to utilize the
Dept. of Natural Resources, office of management and finance, for accounting and budgetary
control, procurement and contractual management, data processing, management and
program analysis, and personnel management and grants management.
New law modifies prior law by allowing, instead of requiring, the CPRA to utilize the Dept.
of Natural Resources, office of management and finance, for those services.
Existing law prohibits the secretary of the Dept. of Natural Resources from exercising
authority over the provision of these services.
New law makes technical changes throughout the statutes to correct references to the Coastal
Protection and Restoration Authority, Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority Board,
the chairman of the board, the executive director, and the executive director of the Coastal
Protection and Restoration Authority.
Effective August 1, 2016.
