All applications for an outfitter's license shall be signed by the 16 applicant, under oath or affirmation that all information supplied by him 17 in the application form is true and correct as he verily believes and 18 shall be duly notarized. Such applications shall include, but are not lim- 19 ited to, a worded description of the boundaries of the operating area in 20 which such activity will be conducted. 21 2. All applications for a guide's license shall be signed by the appli- 22 cant.

STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS 12366
The purpose of this legislation is to amend Section 36-2108(d) to
permit fees for expedited, electronic, resubmittal or emergency
processing of license applications and a fee for the use of credit
cards corresponding to the cost to the agency of processing the
card use.
FISCAL IMPACT
The fiscal impact of this legislation would initially result in
approximately $20,000 increased income to the Board per fiscal
year. This will decrease each year that additional applications
are received online and electronically subsequently less fees will
be generated due to fewer requests for expedited, resubmittal or
emergency processing of license applications.
