Summary — AB 1 (BDR S-299)

Title: Voids certain regulations relating to the development and disposal of land in the Fort Mohave Valley
Sponsor: Committee on Government Affairs (on behalf of the Colorado River Commission of Nevada)
Status: Approved by the Governor; Chaptered. Effective on passage and approval.

What the bill does (plain language)

AB 1 declares void the administrative regulations codified at NAC 321.100 through NAC 321.230 (the regulations the Colorado River Commission previously adopted governing development and disposal of land in the Fort Mohave Valley). The bill directs the Legislative Counsel to remove those sections from the Nevada Administrative Code.

Purpose and legislative intent

  • Remove the existing Colorado River Commission regulations that governed procedures for disposal and development of land in the Fort Mohave Valley.
  • Conform the administrative code to current statutory practice following prior statutory transfers of authority (see background).
  • Simplify or eliminate outdated or superseded regulatory language from NAC related to Fort Mohave Valley land disposal.

Key provisions

  • Section 1: Declares NAC 321.100 – 321.230 (inclusive) void.
  • Section 1: Directs Legislative Counsel, when preparing future NAC supplements, to remove those regulations.
  • Section 2: States the act becomes effective upon passage and approval.

Who is affected

  • Colorado River Commission of Nevada: the regulations it previously adopted are voided; this is largely a housekeeping/legal change rather than an immediate reallocation of authority.
  • Clark County and its Board of County Commissioners: background law (S.B. 301, 2007) previously transferred administration of the Fort Mohave Valley Development Law to Clark County; this bill aligns the NAC with that statutory framework.
  • Landowners, developers, and other stakeholders in the Fort Mohave Valley: any regulatory procedures that relied on the now-voided NAC provisions would no longer be in force; ongoing land administration should follow current statute and local county rules.

Procedural / timeline notes

  • The measure took effect immediately upon the Governor’s signature (chaptered into law).
  • Legislative Counsel must remove the specified NAC sections in future NAC supplements.

Fiscal and administrative impact

  • Committee material indicates: No effect on local government; No effect on the State. The bill is presented as a non-fiscal, administrative cleanup.

Background context

  • NAC 321.100–321.230 were adopted historically when the Colorado River Commission administered Fort Mohave Valley land disposal. Senate Bill 301 (2007) transferred that authority to Clark County. AB 1 removes the remaining regulations that are inconsistent with current statutory administration.
