SF 2235: Creating a lifetime fur harvester license for disabled veterans

What it does

This bill creates a lifetime fur harvester license for a resident of Iowa who has served in the armed forces of the United States on federal active duty and who was disabled, as defined in the bill, or was a prisoner of war during that veteran’s military service. The bill requires the department of natural resources (DNR) to establish a fee by rule for the lifetime fur harvester license and prepare an application to be used by a person requesting a lifetime fur harvester license. The department of veterans affairs shall assist DNR in verifying the status or claims of applicants and utilize the fees collected to recover costs associated with the license’s administration.
