What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, the Department of Natural Resources may promulgate

rules establishing qualifications for persons applying for commercial fishing licenses

for fishing in the Great Lakes. These rules include a requirement that, in order to

qualify for a license, an applicant must have harvested in the previous license year

at least a certain amount of fish. This bill prohibits minimum harvesting

requirements.
