Office of District Waterways Management Establishment Emergency Amendment Act of 2024
This bill amends the law creating the Office of District Waterways Management to improve how its advisory commission operates. It changes the appointment process for commission members to match other similar groups, adds the Department of Parks and Recreation as a non-voting member, and adjusts meeting schedules to allow more time for public engagement. The legislation also extends the required update cycle for the commission's advisory plan from one year to at least three years and simplifies the timeline for adopting the plan.
