146.260 Recommendation of additional stream areas by secretary for energy and environment -- Contents. (1) The secretary for energy and environment shall study and from time to time submit to the Governor and to the General Assembly proposals for additions to the Wild <br>Rivers System of streams and sections of streams which, in his judgment, would <br>qualify for inclusion therein. Each proposal shall be accompanied by: <br>(a) A detailed map showing the boundaries of the stream or sections of streams and those adjacent lands needed to protect and administer the needed controls. (b) The category of the proposed additions in accordance with KRS 146.230. <br>(c) A detailed report on the factors which make the area a worthy addition to the system. (2) The intention of this requirement is to insure that such studies will be made; it is not intended to preclude or discourage, but rather encourage similar studies and <br>proposals by other agencies or by citizen groups working independently. Authority <br>for additions to the Wild Rivers System shall remain exclusively with the Kentucky <br>General Assembly. Effective: July 15, 2010 <br>History: Amended 2010 Ky.
