required. C. Adoption of the compact may be either by enactment thereof or by adherence thereto
by the governor; provided that in the absence of enactment, adherence by the governor
shall be sufficient to make his state a party only until December 31, 1967. During any period when a state is participating in this compact through gubernatorial
action, the governor shall appoint those persons who, in addition to himself, shall
serve as the members of the commission from his state, and shall provide to the commission
an equitable share of the financial support of the commission from any source available
to him. D. Except for a withdrawal effective on December 31, 1967 in accordance with paragraph
C. of this article, any party state may withdraw from this compact by enacting a statute
repealing the same, but no such withdrawal shall take effect until one year after
the governor of the withdrawing state has given notice in writing of the withdrawal
to the governors of all other party states. No withdrawal shall affect any liability already incurred by or chargeable to a
party state prior to the time of such withdrawal.
