SB 323 - HB 422 
 
SUMMARY OF BILL:    Authorizes the Fish and Wildlife Commission (Commission) to 
name real property, infrastructure, improvements to infrastructure, or features under the jurisdiction 
of the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency (TWRA).  
 
 
FISCAL IMPACT: 
NOT SIGNIFICANT   
  
 Assumptions: 
 
• Tennessee Code Annotated § 70-1-206 defines the Commission’s duties, including 
appointing leadership, approving budgets, setting wildlife policies, regulating fees, and 
managing certain natural areas. 
• The proposed legislation amends the current statute to grant the Commission authority to 
name real property, infrastructure, and features under the TWRA’s jurisdiction. 
• This legislation is not expected to have a significant fiscal impact. While minor costs may 
arise from updating signage after a name change, these expenses are already accounted for 
within the TWRA’s existing sign maintenance budget.
