The bill also reconstitutes the Mississippi Commission on Marine Resources as the Mississippi Advisory Commission on Marine Resources, which will serve in an advisory capacity to the Department of Marine Resources rather than having independent regulatory authority. The advisory commission will advise the department on matters related to marine resources, including policies, contracts, and regulations. The bill makes other changes to clarify the roles and responsibilities of the department and the advisory commission.
