HB 2332 West Virginia House of Delegates · 2025 Regular Session

Relating to authorizing the Division of Natural Resources to promulgate a legislative rule relating to transporting and selling wildlife parts and pelts

This bill authorizes West Virginia's Division of Natural Resources to implement an existing rule (filed September 3, 2024) governing the transport and sale of wildlife parts and pelts. It directly affects hunters, trappers, and businesses handling animal products by formalizing current regulations under state law. The key mechanism is simply granting official approval for the Division to enforce this specific rule (58 CSR 16), which has already been proposed. The bill does not create new restrictions but confirms the legal authority for the existing rule.
