Adding Prerequisites to MBs

This is a BSA policy question. I thought I knew the answer to this but...
Our Council Advancement Committee has set a policy that Swimming merit
badge must be earned before a Scout can begin earning Canoeing, Rowing,
Lifesaving, or Small-Boat Sailing merit badges.
I was under the impression that additional requirements could not be added
to a merit badge, or any BSA award for that matter. The Requirements Book
says something to the effect of no more and no less than the stated
requirements. The professionals at my council office say they can make it
harder but not easier.
Where is the authoritative source regarding this issue?
