Title
EXECUTIVE ORDER NO. 10-2014 - REORGANIZATIONAL PROPOSAL amending the Schedule of Legislation to change the name of the Department of Environmental Resources.
Background
This Executive Order will amend the Schedule of Legislation to change the name of the Department of Environmental Resources to the Department of the Environment.  This name change will more accurately reflect the functions of the department to distinguish it from its past identity as a building permit, inspection and code enforcement agency with a renewed image that projects responsible and innovative environmental stewardship.
