PAG LIN
  1  1    Section 1.  Section 483A.8, subsection 3, Code Supplement
  1  2 2003, is amended to read as follows:
  1  3    3.  A nonresident hunting deer is required to have a
  1  4 nonresident hunting license and a nonresident deer license and
  1  5 must pay the wildlife habitat fee.  The commission shall
  1  6 annually limit to eight eleven thousand five hundred licenses
  1  7 the number of nonresidents allowed to have deer hunting
  1  8 licenses.  Of the first six thousand nonresident deer licenses
  1  9 issued, not more than thirty-five percent of the licenses
  1 10 shall be bow season licenses and, after the first six thousand
  1 11 nonresident deer licenses have been issued, all additional
  1 12 licenses shall be issued for antlerless deer only.  The
  1 13 commission shall allocate the nonresident deer hunting
  1 14 licenses issued among the zones based on the populations of
  1 15 deer.  However, a nonresident applicant may request one or
  1 16 more hunting zones, in order of preference, in which the
  1 17 applicant wishes to hunt.  If the request cannot be fulfilled,
  1 18 the applicable fees shall be returned to the applicant.  A
  1 19 nonresident applying for a deer hunting license must exhibit
  1 20 proof of having successfully completed a hunter safety and
  1 21 ethics education program as provided in section 483A.27 or its
  1 22 equivalent as determined by the department before the license
  1 23 is issued.  
  1 24                           EXPLANATION
  1 25    This bill amends Code section 483A.8 to require the natural
  1 26 resource commission to limit the number of nonresident deer
  1 27 hunting licenses available to 11,000 instead of 8,500.  As a
  1 28 result of this change, after the first 6,000 nonresident any
  1 29 sex deer hunting licenses have been issued, there will be
  1 30 5,000 antlerless only deer hunting licenses available for
  1 31 issuance instead of 2,500.
