DIGEST 

Currently, Texas maintains a large amount of natural resources.  Natural
resources are extremely important to the enjoyment of the outdoors, and it
is the mission of the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department to preserve and
protect the state's natural resources.  In the near future, the department
will undergo the sunset review process, and it would be prudent to review
its sources of funding. 

PURPOSE

As proposed, S.C.R. 81 submits the following resolutions:

That the 76th Legislature direct the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department
and the Sunset Advisory Commission to include a review of appropriate
sources of dedicated funding for financing the programs administered by the
department in the sunset review process; and 

That an official copy of this resolution be prepared and forwarded to the
Texas Parks and Wildlife Commission and the Sunset Advisory Commission.
