This bill, requested by the Department of Fish, Wildlife, and Parks, aims to amend existing laws regarding the acquisition of a lifetime fishing license for individuals who are blind. Specifically, it seeks to exclude the requirement for these individuals to obtain an Aquatic Invasive Species Prevention Pass when applying for their lifetime fishing license.

The bill proposes amendments to Sections 87-2-130 and 87-2-803 of the Montana Code Annotated (MCA) to facilitate this change, thereby simplifying the process for blind individuals to enjoy fishing without the additional burden of the invasive species pass requirement. The bill is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
