STATEMENT OF PURPOSE HB 87 This bill is a supplemental appropriation for the Department of Fish and Game and provides spending authority for two pieces of legislation that passed last year. The supplemental for the Wildlife program provides spending authority for the non-game funds that are generated by the new elk license plate, with the passage of SB 1397 last year. These funds will replace a portion of three biologist positions that are currently funded with federal Pittman-Robertson funds. Now those funds can be used in support of other game related wildlife functions. Also included is spending authority for the new hunter education shooting range development monies generated by the passage of HB 612 last session. HB 612 directed that 65% of fish and game fines and forfeitures be spent on hunter and archery education and shooting range development. Both of these statutes passed last year after the Fish and Game budget had been completed in JFAC.
