eliminated the Youth Deer and Turkey Hunting Permit and the Youth Antlerless Permit
approved allowing resident youth under the age of 16 to trap without a permit
set a minimum age of 6 for obtaining deer and turkey permits
approved allowing nonresident youth to hunt during the 2-day Youth Spring Turkey Season
established a light goose Conservation Order Permit
modified most sport permit prices
approved allowing nonresident college and technical school students to purchase resident permits
made the hunter-education and age requirements for mentors consistent
created cost-savings Forever permits for seniors who hunt small game and fish each year
created a Landowner Registry for those who qualify for no-cost deer and turkey permits
no longer allow lessees, who live on the property, to qualify for landowner privileges
changed the landowner acreage requirement for no-cost deer and turkey permit privileges to 80or more contiguous acres
