Fiscal Detail and Notes
This bill would allow residents who are qualified disabled veterans to obtain a noncommercial lobster and crab fishing license or a noncommercial scallop license at no cost. Residents who are qualified disabled veterans are also exempted from paying the scallop license surcharge on a noncommercial scallop license. These exemptions would result in minor General Fund and Other Special Revenue Funds decreases. The amount of revenue decrease cannot be determined at this time but is not anticipated to be significant.
