Mel Noland Woodland Incentives and Fellowship Fund - Reporting

Summary

The bill directs Maryland’s Department of Natural Resources to file a yearly report with the Senate Education, Energy & Environment Committee and the House Environment & Transportation Committee. The report must detail how much money from the agricultural land transfer tax—specifically the portion tied to title transfers of wholly‑wooded parcels—was placed in the Mel Noland Woodland Incentives and Fellowship Fund during the prior fiscal year, and note any uncertainties about those amounts. This ensures transparency about funding for woodland conservation and fellowship programs.
