AN ACT To provide relative to wildlife management areas, to designate the boat launch on the Bussey Brake Wildlife Management Area in Morehouse Parish as the "William Kinnison 'Kinny' Haddox Boat Launch"; to provide for location and placement of signage; and to provide for related matters.
AI Summary
This bill designates the boat launch located near the north entrance of the Bussey Brake Wildlife Management Area in Morehouse Parish, Louisiana, as the "William Kinnison 'Kinny' Haddox Boat Launch". The legislation requires the Department of Wildlife and Fisheries to erect and maintain appropriate signage to mark the boat launch with its new name. By naming the boat launch after William Kinnison "Kinny" Haddox, the bill appears to be honoring a local individual who likely made significant contributions to the area or the wildlife management community. The bill will take effect on August 1, 2025, and overrides any existing laws that might conflict with this specific designation. This type of local commemorative legislation is common, allowing communities to recognize and memorialize individuals who have been important to a particular region or field of work.
