239K Rights to sue President or Commissioner become rights to sue Authority

If a right to sue a person, in the person’s capacity as the President or a Commissioner, existed immediately before the commencement of this Part, but had not been exercised, from that commencement the right to sue:

(a)

ceases to be a right to sue the person; and

(b)

becomes a right to sue the Authority.

Note:

The Agreement provides for the Basin States to indemnify the Authority for a share of the costs associated with rights covered by this section.
