Establishes program and investment fund in DEP to support implementation of Wildlife Corridor Action Plan; authorizes creation of special Wildlife Corridor license plates.

This bill creates a public-private partnership program within the Department of Environmental Protection to help fund and manage wildlife corridors and crossing projects. It also allows vehicle owners to purchase special license plates that support these conservation efforts through additional registration fees. The collected fees will be placed in a dedicated investment fund to finance planning, construction, and maintenance of wildlife corridors. The bill requires regular reporting on the program's progress and effectiveness to the Governor and Legislature.
