FISCAL NOTE

 

 

	FY 2006	FY 2007	FY 2008
NON-ADMINISTRATIVE IMPACT
Anticipated Revenue Increase:
TRUST AND AGENCY FUND	100,000	100,000	100,000

 

Source of revenue increase:

 

There are currently around 200 fishing outfitters who are not currently licensed as big game or deer/antelope outfitters.

 

Assumptions: 

Fishing outfitters would probably pay the same amount as any other outfitter, which is $500 annually. 

 

This bill has administrative impact that appears to increase (or decrease) duties or responsibilities of one or more state agencies and may impact agency spending or staffing requirements. The following state agencies will be asked to provide their estimate of the administrative fiscal impact prior to the first committee meeting held to consider the bill:

 

Board of Outfitters

 

In addition, the Game and Fish Department reports that expenditures will relate solely to the printing of resident guide angler licenses.  This amount is minimal.  Past printing costs for the resident guide hunting licenses were approximately $35.  Costs of printing are escalating, so a total of $50 annually is calculated for Inflation.  Although this cost may be considered administrative in nature, it is included above because the amount is minimal.
