BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE 

The Bee Groundwater Conservation District (district) was created during the
75th Legislature.  After the confirmation election, the directors of the
district discovered that the language in the bill did not comply with
election law.  Senate Bill 1036 brings the district into line with current
law and establishes that the district will have a uniform election date to
elect the district's directors.    

RULEMAKING AUTHORITY

It is the opinion of the Office of House Bill Analysis that this bill does
not expressly delegate any additional rulemaking authority to a state
officer, department, agency, or institution. 

ANALYSIS

Senate Bill 1036 amends law to require the election of directors to the Bee
Groundwater Conservation District to be held on a uniform election date,
selected by the initial directors in conformity with current law. 

EFFECTIVE DATE

On passage, or if the Act does not receive the necessary vote, the Act
takes effect September 1, 2001.
