The Political Reform Act, Government Code Section 81000 et seq., requires state and local government agencies to adopt and promulgate conflict-of-interest codes. The Fair Political Practices Commission has adopted a regulation, 2 California Code of Regulations, Section 18730 that contains the terms of a standard conflict-of-interest code, which can be incorporated by reference in an agency's code. After public notice and hearing, the standard code may be amended by the Fair Political Practices Commission to conform to amendments in the Political Reform Act. Therefore, the terms of 2 California Code of Regulations, Section 18730 and any amendments to it duly adopted by the Fair Political Practices Commission are hereby incorporated by reference. This regulation and the attached Appendices, designating positions and establishing disclosure categories, shall constitute the conflict-of-interest code of the San Diego River Conservancy (Conservancy).

Individuals holding designated positions shall file their statements of economic interests with the Conservancy, which will make the statements available for public inspection and reproduction. (Gov. Code Sec. 81008.). Upon receipt of the statements of the governing board of the Conservancy, the Conservancy shall make and retain copies and forward the original of these statements to the Fair Political Practices Commission. All other statements will be retained by the Conservancy.
