NATURAL RESOURCES DEPT: Provides for the organization, duties, and responsibilities of the Dept. of Energy and Natural Resources (EN SEE FISC NOTE GF EX)

This bill updates the official name of the state's Department of Energy and Natural Resources by adding the words "energy and" to the title of the secretary. It also requires the department to collaborate with the Center for Energy Studies when performing its duties. These changes clarify the agency's leadership title and establish a specific partnership for energy-related work without altering the department's core responsibilities.
