DOA:......Walker, BB0340 - Remove Fox River navigation system appropriations
For 2005-07 Budget -- Not Ready For Introduction
2005 BILL

AN ACT ...; relating to: the budget.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau

Navigable waters
Current law provides that the Fox River management commission (river commission), is authorized to enter into agreements with the federal government to operate and manage the Fox River navigational system which includes locks, harbors, and other facilities related to navigation that are on or near the Fox River.
Current law provides that if the Fox River navigational system is transferred from the federal government to the state the Fox River Navigational Authority (authority) is required to take over the rehabilitation, repair, replacement, operation, and maintenance of the system. Current law provides that once the system is transferred to the state, the state in turn will enter into a lease with the authority to transfer the system to the authority.
Because the system has been transferred to the state, and the state has entered into a lease with the authority to transfer the system to the authority, this draft eliminates the the river commission and its authority to enter into agreements with the federal government to operate and manage the Fox River navigational system.
For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
