in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

Congress declares the Nodaway River in three Missouri counties not a navigable water of the United States. This means federal laws protecting navigable waters don't cover it. Congress keeps the right to change or cancel this rule later.

This section declares that the Nodaway River, as it runs through Andrew, Holt, and Nodaway counties in Missouri, is not a "navigable water of the United States." That means the river does not get the legal protections Congress created for such waters. Congress expressly reserves the right to alter, amend, or repeal this section at any time.
