House Bill No. [insert bill number] seeks to repeal Section 2 of Act No. 384 from the 2024 Regular Session of the Legislature, which mandated the State Civil Service Commission and the Civil Service Commission of the City of New Orleans to create a plan for transferring employees of the New Orleans Sewerage and Water Board to the state civil service. The bill effectively nullifies the requirement for these commissions to develop and implement such a transfer plan, thereby allowing the current employment structure of the board to remain unchanged.

The proposed law will take effect upon the governor's signature or, if not signed, after the designated time for bills to become law without signature. If the bill is vetoed and later approved by the legislature, it will become effective the day after that approval. This legislative action reflects a significant shift in the management of the board's employees, as it removes the obligation to transition them to state civil service oversight.
