WATERWAYS: Removes the designated deadline the board of the Amite River Basin Drainage and Water Conservation District has to promulgate regulations for watershed management within the district

HB 165 removes a specific deadline requiring the Amite River Basin Drainage and Water Conservation District board to create watershed management regulations. The bill eliminates the existing requirement that the board promulgate these rules "prior to January 1, 2026," meaning the board can now establish such regulations at any time without a fixed deadline. This change directly affects the district board, which manages watershed policies within the Amite River Basin area. The key provision is simply deleting the 2026 deadline from the existing law, leaving the board's regulatory process unchanged except for the removal of the time constraint.
