The bill, S. 469, is a joint resolution that seeks to approve new regulations proposed by the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources regarding electronic harvest reporting for big game, specifically designated as Regulation Document Number 5331. This regulation aims to establish detailed provisions for the electronic reporting of harvests for all big game species, including deer, wild turkey, and black bear. The initiative follows an amendment to SC Code Section 50-11-546, which made electronic harvest reporting applicable to all big game species effective July 1, 2024.

The resolution includes a provision that the regulations submitted by the Department of Natural Resources are approved, and it stipulates that the joint resolution will take effect upon the Governor's approval. The proposed regulations outline the required reporting methods and elements necessary for compliance with the new electronic harvest reporting system.
