An Act relating to intensive management of big game prey populations; relating to same-day airborne hunting; and providing for an effective date.
HB 364 requires the Alaska Department of Fish and Game to annually report to the legislature and the Board of Game on how big game hunting opportunities are allocated, including breakdowns by resident status, guided versus non-guided hunting, and specific management units. It establishes a "sustainable wildlife account" to fund intensive management programs for big game populations using money from a surcharge on hunting tags. The bill also amends regulations to allow the Board of Game to implement population management programs when specific conditions are met, such as population depletion or feasibility of enhancement through active management. These changes aim to improve transparency in hunting opportunity distribution and ensure dedicated funding for sustaining big game populations.
