The bill amends R.S. 38:3301(A) to redefine the geographical boundaries of the Amite River Basin Drainage and Water Conservation District. It replaces previous boundary descriptions that referenced parish boundaries and specific highways with new language that emphasizes the thalweg of the Mississippi River as a key boundary marker. This change aims to clarify and update the district's limits to better reflect current geographical and administrative realities.

The new legal language includes detailed descriptions of boundary lines between various parishes in Louisiana, focusing on the thalweg of the Mississippi River as a significant reference point. The bill outlines precise directions and intersections with parish boundary lines, establishing clear jurisdictional limits between Ascension, St. James, St. John the Baptist, Livingston, and other parishes. The insertions enhance the existing legal framework regarding parish boundaries, providing a clearer understanding for administrative purposes without indicating any deletions from current law.
