An Act relative to critical wildlife habitat management

Summary

The bill creates a Wildlands Acquisition Account funded by sales of a new conservation stamp and portions of hunting, fishing, and trapping license fees. Money in the account can only be used to purchase land for wildlife habitat and to cover administration of the stamp program, and $2.50 of each stamp sale is earmarked for habitat management on state‑managed lands. It also requires anyone hunting, fishing or trapping on state lands to have the stamp, with exemptions for license‑exempt persons and holders of free licenses.
