FISHING/CRAWFISH: Makes changes to the Louisiana Crawfish Promotion and Research Board
This bill amends the Louisiana Crawfish Promotion and Research Board by removing specific phrases from its enabling legislation that relate to providing funds for the board. The changes directly affect the administrative structure and funding language associated with the crawfish industry in Louisiana. By deleting the words "to provide" and "for and," the bill alters how the board's financial operations are described in the state code. This legislative adjustment is a technical edit to the existing law rather than a new policy initiative.
