HB 1264

[KEN W]

Introduced by Rep's Brandenburg, Krempenich; Sen's Erbele, Wanzek. Would prohibit the Game and Fish Director from taking any punitive or remedial action against an individual using a rifle to take a goose with a depredation kill permit. In addition, would allow nonresidents to hunt the entire state during the early Canada goose season without counting against the 14-day waterfowl hunting period. Currently, the 14-day restriction does not apply in only Richland, Sargent, Benson, Ramsey and Towner counties. House Energy and Natural Resources Committee to hear 1/25, 9 a.m.

This is basically a non stop effort to commercialize hunting here.Needs to go down.

This bill is on the House floor tomorrow.It has been significantly amended.It basically combines with HB1313.

There will be a new license category....Early Canada Season.It will be good for both residents and non-residents state wide.Residents will have to buy a $5 license.NR will have to buy a $50 license.Good only for the Early Canada season.
