RS 30 - Purpose

A. The legislature hereby acknowledges that water as a source of life is the most important element of man's environmental resources. Louisiana has been favored with abundant water resources and has had little to prompt the establishment of a state policy and program addressing the short and long-term availability of and need for water. However, the planning, development, and wise management of the state's water resources will be necessary to sustain its people, commerce, and industry.

B. To ensure an adequate and safe supply of water to Louisiana users, the legislature hereby creates a statewide program for the planning, development, and management of water resources.

Added by Acts 1983, No. 625, §1.
