The bill aims to streamline state agency publications by eliminating or modifying those that are outdated, duplicative, or excessive. Key amendments include the requirement for the commissioner to publish a list of all brands and marks in a downloadable format on the department's website, rather than in physical book form. Additionally, the bill mandates that state agencies compile a list of their publications every ten years, highlighting those that could be improved or consolidated, and submit this list to the governor and legislature. The governor is also required to submit a bill every ten years to address the identified publications.
Several provisions are repealed, including annual reporting requirements and notifications to the legislature regarding various departmental activities, such as the use of waterfowl conservation tag fees and the status of rights-of-way. The bill also removes the requirement for the Department of Natural Resources to report annually on identified rights-of-way and eliminates the need for the commissioner of revenue to provide reports on fund performance to the Department of Military and Veterans' Affairs. Overall, the bill seeks to reduce unnecessary paperwork and improve the efficiency of state agency operations.
