SB0520Enacted

Amends TCA Title 64, Chapter 1, Part 11.

Tennessee SB0520 amends the West Tennessee River Basin Authority's governing statutes by replacing specific river basin references with a general reference to the authority's service area, which is expanded to include Perry, Stewart, Houston, and Humphreys counties. The bill allows the authority to provide technical assistance and project management support in these newly added counties, while also broadening the authority's duties to encompass its entire service area. Additionally, it modifies the taxation area to align with the expanded service area and removes specific references to the Hatchie, Obion, and Forked Deer River basins in favor of a more general application.
