This bill assigns the responsibility for the maintenance and use of the Old Williams School property to the commissioner of natural resources, removing Lake of the Woods County's management duties. Specifically, it states that the commissioner, in consultation with the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, will oversee the property, ensuring that it is properly maintained and utilized.

Additionally, the bill mandates that by February 1, 2026, the commissioner must submit a report to the relevant legislative committees detailing options for the cleanup, maintenance, and use of the Old Williams School site. This new legal framework is set to take effect the day after the bill is enacted.
