§ 201 Commission Regulatory Limits

This law says the commission can't control natural resources or any business tied to them unless the law specifically gives it that power.

Key Takeaways

  • •The commission has no general power over natural resources or related businesses.
  • •It can only act if another law specifically says it can.
  • •Any attempt to regulate without that specific permission is not allowed.

Example

A state commission tries to set limits on how many trees a logging company can cut down.

Because the law only lets the commission act when the statute says so, it can't make those limits unless another law specifically gives it that authority.
