Excerpt from Laws of Indiana: Relating to the Conservation of Natural Resources; Including the Laws Relating to Geology, Natural Gas, Entomology, Forestry, Lands and Waters and Fish and Game This compilation contains all of the laws of the State of Indiana now in force relating to the conservation of natural resources, including the law creating the Department of Conservation and prescribing its powers and duties, together with the laws governing the departments of Geology, Natural Gas, Entomology, Forestry, Lands and Waters, and Fish and Game, which the Department of Conservation is required to execute and administer. Burns' Annotated Indiana Statutes, Revision of 1914, and the Supplement of 1918 have been used as the basis for the compilation but all laws included therein which are clearly obsolete or are repealed or superseded by the Conservation Act of 1919 have been eliminated. An appendix contains that part of the Migratory Bird Treaty Act which pertains to the laws of the State of Indiana. Attention is called to the fact that state and federal legislation is not entirely concurrent. The laws embodied in this collection are arranged by subjects and numbered by compiler's sections in consecutive order. The first number, given in bold face type, is the compiler's section number; then follows the general descriptive title of the section and this is succeeded by the original number of the section as assigned in the session laws. At the close of each section is given the citation to the page of the session laws where the section is found, and to the corresponding section in Burns' Annotated Statutes of 1914 and the Supplement of 1918. Words, phrases, clauses and sentences printed in italics have been repealed or superseded by provisions of the Conservation Act and words inserted in brackets indicate the correct reading where changes have been effected. Following the sections will be found annotations in smaller type giving the substance of the decisions of the higher courts in construing and interpreting the law.
