Current through the 2024 Regular Session
It is hereby declared as a matter of legislative determination that the overflow and inundation of sixteenth section lands or in lieu lands shall not constitute legal waste of such lands.

Any sixteenth section lands that have been flooded shall be reforested before this project shall ever be abandoned.
