Amends existing law to revise provisions regarding the designation of allocated tags.
This legislation amends section 36-2120 of the Outfitters and Guides Act to clarify the calculation that the Outfitters and Guides Licensing Board (the “Board”) uses to designate deer and elk hunting tags that are allocated for the use of outfitted hunters by the Idaho Fish and Game Commission (the “Commission”). These changes specify that the two years of prior use that form the basis for the calculation are the two (2) calendar years preceding the date of allocation. This change is necessary to ensure that the Board will use the same years of use to designate tags as the Commission used to allocate the tags. It will also ensure the Board can timely designate tags to individual outfitters, which will be beneficial to the outfitter’s businesses.
