NATURAL RESOURCES CODE
TITLE 1. GENERAL PROVISIONS
CHAPTER 1. GENERAL PROVISIONS
Sec. 1.001. PURPOSE OF CODE. (a) This code is enacted as a
part of the state's continuing statutory revision program, begun
by the Texas Legislative Council in 1963 as directed by the
legislature in Chapter 448, Acts of the 58th Legislature, Regular
Session, 1963 (Article 5429b-1, Vernon's Texas Civil Statutes).
The program contemplates a topic-by-topic revision of the state's
general and permanent statute law without substantive change.
(b) Consistent with the objectives of the statutory revision
program, the purpose of this code is to make the general and
permanent natural resources law more accessible and
understandable by:
(1) rearranging the statutes into a more logical order;
(2) employing a format and numbering system designed to
facilitate citation of the law and to accommodate future
expansion of the law;
(3) eliminating repealed, duplicative, unconstitutional,
expired, executed, and other ineffective provisions; and
(4) restating the law in modern American English to the greatest
extent possible.
Acts 1977, 65th Leg., p. 2347, ch. 871, art. I, Sec. 1, eff.

Sec. 1.002. CONSTRUCTION OF CODE. The Code Construction Act
(Chapter 311, Government Code) applies to the construction of
each provision in this code, except as otherwise expressly
provided by this code.
