|---|
| 10 | 10 | | SECTION 1. Section 411.063(a), Government Code, is amended |
|---|

|---|
| 15 | 15 | | rules adopted by the preservation board and shall administer and |
|---|
| 16 | 16 | | enforce this subchapter. This subsection does not affect the |
|---|
| 17 | 17 | | authority of the department to adopt rules under Section 411.067.] |
|---|
| 18 | 18 | | SECTION 2. Section 411.065(a), Government Code, is amended |
|---|
| 19 | 19 | | to read as follows: |

|---|
| 22 | 22 | | the State Preservation Board adopted under] Section 411.063. |

|---|
| 24 | 24 | | State Preservation Board adopted under Section 411.063, Government |
|---|
| 25 | 25 | | Code, are transferred to the Department of Public Safety of the |

|---|
| 39 | 39 | | Act does not receive the vote necessary for immediate effect, this |
|---|
| 40 | 40 | | Act takes effect September 1, 2015. |
