The unclassified service of the state shall include personnel employed by the Corporation Commission in positions which do not require registration with the Board of Professional Engineers and Land Surveyors but which have been employed in accordance with subparagraph 8 of paragraph 22 of Section 840.8 of Title 74 of the Oklahoma Statutes, which provides for engineer positions and employees of the Corporation Commission to be unclassified. From and after the effective date of this act, the titles of such positions and employees shall be changed to reflect the specialized nature of the positions and the intent of the Legislature that such positions be part of the unclassified service.
This provision is not intended to change the current status, whether classified or unclassified, of any employee or position of the Corporation Commission. Furthermore, it is not intended to authorize any increase in classified or unclassified full-time-equivalent employee positions or funding limitations.
