Repeals existing law to remove outdated or unnecessary provisions.
DEPARTMENT OF LANDS -- Repeals existing law to remove outdated or unnecessary provisions.
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
To ensure that state laws are streamlined, up-to-date, and essential for the citizens of Idaho, while best serving the public health, safety, and welfare, the Legislature approved the Idaho Code Cleanup Act, H14 in the 2025 legislative session. Submitted sections of Idaho Code were reviewed for repeal consideration by the DOGE Task Force on the criteria of obsolete, outdated, and unnecessary. This bill repeals 30 sections of Idaho Code in Title 38 and Title 58 pertaining to the Idaho Department of Lands and floating timber and Town Site Claims. Transporting logs by floating them down river is no longer common practice. The town site claim framework dates to the territorial era.
