Description
Oyster replenishment tax; penalties. Reorganizes, clarifies, and renames the oyster replenishment tax system as a system of oyster resource user fees. In addition to repealing four Code sections, the bill replaces the former price-based replenishment tax with a volume-based oyster resource user fee, specifying that no harvester shall pay more than one such fee per year. The bill removes the exemption from licensing requirements for an oyster grounds leaseholder, distinguishes from other fees the license fee to be paid by a person who buys from the catcher oysters caught from the public grounds, simplifies the description of the fisheries data that harvesters and others are required to record, simplifies the prohibition on carrying oysters out of state without a permit, and removes certain oyster inspection tax provisions. The bill also makes technical amendments. Read the Bill »
