What’s in it

This bill relates to the established season for hunting game birds on a preserve. _____ 31. The bill allows a game bird hunting preserve operator to apply for a variance to extend the season beyond March if the precipitation for the month of January, February, or March of that season is above average for the county in which the preserve is located. The bill requires the state climatologist to provide official national weather service and community collaborative rain, hail and snow network data to the department of natural resources to determine whether a variance to the established season shall be granted.

Read the full explanation

The bill requires the operator to pay a $25 fee when applying for a variance. The bill prohibits the department from granting a variance that extends the season beyond April of the year for which the variance is requested. The bill also makes a change to the definition of “game bird” to reflect a recent reorganization of bird classification.
