This Department was created by the General Assembly of 1925 (public Laws of 1925, Chapter A part of the new Department's function was to take over the work heretofore done by the Geological and Economic Survey. In addition, the Department of Conservation and Development was given broader powers in regard to the conservation and development of the State's resources. The new act emphasizes as much as ever the importance of forestry, water resources and geology. It is also provided that the Department shall be a publicity bureau to advertise the State. It is required to gather and collate fundamental facts on the State's industrial and natural resources, to collect and publish from time to time statistics showing the growth of the State and its economic advantages.
The General Assembly of 1927 enacted the North Carolina Game Law (chapter 51, Public Laws) and at the same session consolidated the State Game Commission with the Department of Conservation and Development (chapter 250, Public Laws). At the same time the Fisheries Commission and the Department of Conservation and Development were consolidated (chapter 51, Public Laws).
