(1)The office shall study and from time to time submit to the Governor and to the

General Assembly proposals for additions to the Wild Rivers System of streams and

sections of streams that qualify for inclusion therein. Each proposal shall be

accompanied by:

(a)A detailed map showing the boundaries of the stream or sections of streams

and those adjacent lands needed to protect and administer the needed controls.

(b)The category of the proposed additions in accordance with KRS 146.230.

(c)A detailed report on the factors which make the area a worthy addition to the

system.

(2)The intention of this requirement is to insure that such studies will be made; it is not

intended to preclude or discourage, but rather encourage similar studies and

proposals by other agencies or by citizen groups working independently. Authority

for additions to the Wild Rivers System shall remain exclusively with the Kentucky

General Assembly.
