Extends provisions authorizing hunting big game by rifle in the county of Tompkins

This bill extends the authorization for hunting big game with rifles in Tompkins County from October 1, 2024, to October 1, 2026. It directly affects residents and hunters in Tompkins County by allowing them to continue using rifles for big game hunting under the existing rules established in previous years. The legislation simply updates the expiration date of the current hunting provisions without changing the specific regulations governing the activity. Once signed into law, the new deadline for these hunting provisions will be October 1, 2026, after which the rules will expire unless further extended.
