A bill for an act creating a lifetime fur harvester license for disabled veterans.

This bill creates a lifetime fur harvester license for Iowa residents who served on active duty in the U.S. military and were disabled during service, as defined by 38 U.S.C. § 11 (service-connected disability rating). It requires the Iowa Department of Natural Resources (DNR) to establish a fee for the license and create an application, while the Department of Veterans Affairs verifies applicants' military service and disability status. The license eliminates the need for annual renewals for eligible disabled veterans. The bill directly affects disabled veterans who are Iowa residents and wish to harvest fur commercially or recreationally.
