The House Resolution urges the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries and the Department of Conservation and Energy to conduct a study on cooperative endeavor agreements related to the withdrawal of surface water. This study is prompted by the recognition of surface water as a vital natural resource for the state's economy, environment, and public safety. The resolution highlights the need for responsible management of these resources, particularly in light of the threats posed by invasive aquatic species, which can impair navigation, increase flood risks, and degrade wildlife habitats.

The resolution outlines four key intentions: to ensure that surface water use supports resource preservation, to promote a coordinated approach to managing aquatic vegetation and invasive species, to establish research and long-term management strategies, and to create sustainable funding mechanisms for the protection and restoration of waterways. The findings from the study are to be summarized in a written report and submitted to the House Committee on Natural Resources and Environment at least thirty days before the 2027 Regular Session of the Legislature.
