Fiscal Detail and Notes
This bill exempts certain fisheries from required information gathering conducted by the Department of Marine Resources.  Asssuming that the use of the word "fisheries" is a reference to a particular segment of the fishing industry that is devoted to one species, the exemption of those fisheries from certain information requirements will represent a minor savings for the department.
