OKLAHOMA CITY -- The Oklahoma Impact Team has learned the Senate President has authored legislation that could reseat the board of the Grand River Dam Authority.

Senate Bill 335 would allow the governor, the Speaker of the House and the Senate President to appoint five of the seven board members at will.

The legislation comes after the Impact Team report uncovered the GRDA board gave their former CEO a back-door $90,000 raise.
