An Act Regarding Public Records Maintained By The Department Of Inland Fisheries And Wildlife

Summary

The act repeals a provision that let hunting or fishing license applicants keep their email address confidential and creates new rules for how the department handles commercial and non‑commercial records, including licenses, permits, registrations and harvest data. It classifies personally identifiable information (PII) as confidential except for specific law‑enforcement, wildlife‑management, governmental or subject‑of‑record disclosures, and allows the department to charge reasonable fees for record copies. The bill also adds parallel confidentiality and public‑access rules for snowmobile and ATV accident reports, with penalties for false reporting or misuse of registration numbers.
