Sec. 1. As used in this chapter, "prior natural resources law" refers
to the statutes that are repealed or amended in the recodification act
of the 1995 regular session of the general assembly as the statutes

IC 14-8-3-2 Purpose of recodification act
Sec. 2. The purpose of the recodification act of the 1995 regular

law in a style that is clear, concise, and easy to interpret and apply.
Except to the extent that:

general assembly is amended to reflect the changes made in a
provision of another bill that adds to, amends, or repeals a
provision in the recodification act of the 1995 regular session
of the general assembly; or
(2) the minutes of meetings of the code revision commission
during 1994 expressly indicate a different purpose;
the substantive operation and effect of the prior natural resources law
continue uninterrupted as if the recodification act of the 1995 regular
session of the general assembly had not been enacted. As added by P.L.1-1995, SEC.1.
IC 14-8-3-3 Statutory construction

IC 14-8-3-4 Effect on existing rights and liabilities
Sec. 4. (a) The recodification act of the 1995 regular session of
the general assembly does not affect:
(1) any rights or liabilities accrued;
(2) any penalties incurred;
(3) any violations committed;
(4) any proceedings begun;
(5) any bonds, notes, loans, or other forms of indebtedness
issued, incurred, or made;
(6) any tax levies made or authorized;
(7) any funds established;
(8) any patents issued;
(9) the validity, continuation, or termination of any contracts or
leases executed; or
(10) the validity, continuation, scope, termination, suspension,
or revocation of:
(A) permits;
(B) licenses;
(C) certificates of registration;
(D) grants of authority; or
(E) limitations of authority;
before the effective date of the recodification act of the 1995 regular
session of the general assembly (July 1, 1995). Those rights,
liabilities, penalties, offenses, proceedings, bonds, notes, loans, other
forms of indebtedness, tax levies, funds, patents, contracts, leases,
permits, licenses, certificates of registration, grants of authority, or
limitations of authority continue and shall be imposed and enforced
under prior natural resources law as if the recodification act of the
1995 regular session of the general assembly had not been enacted.
(b) The recodification act of the 1995 regular session of the
general assembly does not:
(1) extend, or cause to expire, a permit, license, certificate of

IC 14-8-3-5 Recodification of prior natural resources law
Sec. 5. The recodification act of the 1995 regular session of the

natural resources law. If the literal meaning of the recodification act
of the 1995 regular session of the general assembly would result in
a substantive change in the prior natural resources law, the difference
shall be construed as a typographical, spelling, or other clerical error
that must be corrected by:
(1) inserting, deleting, or substituting words, punctuation, or
other matters of style in the recodification act of the 1995
regular session of the general assembly; and
(2) using any other rule of statutory construction;
as necessary or appropriate to apply the recodification act of the
1995 regular session of the general assembly in a manner that does
not result in a substantive change in the law. The principle of
statutory construction that a court must apply the literal meaning of
an act if the literal meaning of the act is unambiguous does not apply
to the recodification act of the 1995 regular session of the general

assembly that is referred to by the citation reference. As added by P.L.1-1995, SEC.1.
