Fiscal Detail and Notes
	This bill increases the guide examination fee from $100 to $125, the taxidermist application fee from $50 to $125, and the pheasant hunting permit from $18 to $29. Due to the limited number of applicants for these applications and permit, the fee increases will result in minor General Fund and Other Special Revenue Funds revenue increases. The bill also increases the daily rate of compensation for examiners of the Advisory Board for the Licensing of Guides and the Advisory Board for the Licensing of Taxidermists from $50 per day to $150 per day. Due to the limited number of people who serve on these boards, these changes will result in minor cost increases.
