The bill mandates that the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks be reimbursed for lost revenue resulting from the issuance of free or partially discounted hunting and fishing licenses, permits, or passes established by legislative enactment on or after July 1, 2027. The reimbursement will equal the amount of lost revenue from such discounts. Additionally, the department is required to maintain an accounting of this lost revenue and submit it to the director of accounts and reports and the state treasurer by June 30 of each fiscal year for reimbursement from the state general fund.

Furthermore, the bill stipulates that upon receipt of the certification of lost revenue accounting, the director of accounts and reports will transfer the equivalent amount from the state general fund to the wildlife fee fund of the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks, subject to available moneys and legislative appropriation acts. The department must also send copies of the certification to the director of the budget and the director of legislative research each time it submits the accounting. The act will take effect upon its publication in the statute book.
