The bill amends the regulations governing predator management districts in Wyoming, specifically focusing on the composition and term limits of the advisory board. It establishes that sportsman and hunter directors must have held a valid fishing or hunting license within the previous twenty-four months, ensuring that these representatives are actively engaged in outdoor activities. The bill also removes staggered term limits for sportsman and hunter directors, allowing for a more streamlined appointment process. Additionally, it increases the number of directors appointed by the board of county commissioners from one to two, while also extending the maximum service period for all directors from six to nine years.

Furthermore, the bill clarifies the terms of service for directors, stipulating that each director shall serve for a maximum of three years, with a cumulative limit of nine years across all terms. This change aims to enhance the governance of predator management districts by ensuring that board members have relevant experience and are not serving indefinitely. The effective date for these changes is set for January 1, 2026.
