HB 19: Natural Resources - Northern Snakehead - Common Name

This Maryland bill officially changes the common name of the northern snakehead to "Patuxent Fish" or "Chesapeake Channa" in state laws and department publications. It creates a specific commercial fishing license for catching this fish in tidal waters, allowing the use of bow and arrow or hook and line methods with certain safety restrictions near swimmers and divers. The license costs $15 per year, is valid for one year, and cannot be transferred to another person. The Department of Natural Resources must update all its materials to use the new names by January 1, 2025, while the law itself takes effect on October 1, 2024.

HB 710: Business Regulation – Household Goods Movers – Special Fund and Fees

This bill establishes a special, nonlapsing fund within the Maryland Department of Labor to cover the costs of regulating household goods movers. It requires the department to calculate annual operational expenses and set registration fees based on those calculations, while limiting any annual fee increase to a maximum of 12.5%. Any investment earnings generated by the fund must be transferred to the state's General Fund rather than being retained by the department. Additionally, the bill keeps existing fees in place until the new fee structure is officially adopted and takes effect.
