    on the legislature of any compacting state, the obligations, duties, powers, or jurisdiction
    sought to be conferred by such provision upon the Interstate Commission shall be ineffective
    and such obligations, duties, powers, or jurisdiction shall remain in the compacting
    state and shall be exercised by the agency thereof to which such obligations, duties,
    powers, or jurisdiction is delegated by law in effect at the time this compact becomes
    effective. (Added 1999, No. 90 (Adj. Sess.), § 3, eff. April 27, 2000.)
