Research notes

Task brief listed 'IC 14-15-10' for agricultural districts and 'Salamonie/Mississinewa Reservoirs' as separate items. IC 14-15-10 does not appear to govern these subjects (IC 14-15 is the Waterway Patrol chapter and does not include a section 10 covering agricultural districts in the Indiana Code). The verified statutory anchors for the reservoirs are IC 14-19 (state parks) and IC 14-25 (water resources), with USACE federal authority over the dam projects. The 'Agricultural Districts' line in the task brief does not map to a standalone Indiana statute — Indiana protects agricultural use through IC 36-7-4 substantive carve-outs and through the Right-to-Farm Act (IC 32-30-6-9), not through a parallel state ag-district overlay; that item is therefore omitted in this record rather than fabricated.
