Department of Fish and Wildlife: Eden Landing Ecological Reserve.

Existing law authorizes the Department of Fish and Wildlife, with the approval of the Fish and Game Commission, to, among other things, maintain, use, and administer land suitable for the purpose of establishing ecological reserves. The Budget Act of 2021 appropriated $50,000 from the General Fund to the department to rename the "Eden Landing Ecological Reserve" the "Congressman Pete Stark Ecological Reserve." This bill would amend the Budget Act of 2021 by revising "Congressman Pete Stark Ecological Reserve" to "Congressman Pete Stark Ecological Reserve at Eden Landing" within that appropriation and would rename the "Eden Landing Ecological Reserve," as specified in certain regulations, the "Congressman Pete Stark Ecological Reserve at Eden Landing." The bill would require the department to implement that name change and would provide that, notwithstanding any other law, commission approval is not required to implement the name change. This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.
