Bill Summary

Under current law, the Natural Resources Board may sell lands and structures owned by the state that are under the jurisdiction of the Department of Natural Resources when the board determines that the lands are no longer necessary for the state’s use for conservation purposes. This bill authorizes the board to also sell such lands that are adjacent to or within one mile of a commercial egg farm to prevent the spread of avian flu.

AI Summary

This bill allows the Natural Resources Board, which oversees state lands managed by the Department of Natural Resources, to sell certain state-owned lands and structures. Previously, this board could only sell these lands if they were no longer needed for conservation purposes. Now, the bill expands this authority to include selling lands that are located next to or within a one-mile radius of a commercial egg farm, specifically to help prevent the spread of avian flu, a serious poultry disease.
