Allows county commissioners to disapprove scenic river designations if they affect private property rights or regulatory authority.
The bill amends the Ohio Revised Code to allow boards of county commissioners to disapprove the designation of scenic rivers if the designation affects private property rights or regulatory authority. County commissioners must provide public notice and submit a written resolution within 90 days of the designation. If the director of natural resources receives such a resolution, they must terminate the river's scenic status. The bill also outlines procedures for designating rivers and the role of the director in managing these designations.
