AI Summary
This bill amends Michigan's Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act to establish a licensing system for commercial hunting guides. Starting in March 2024, individuals must obtain a commercial hunting guide license and a base hunting license to act as a commercial hunting guide in the state. The bill sets eligibility criteria for the license, requires commercial guides to carry certain first aid equipment, prohibits them from operating on commercial forestland, and mandates they submit annual reports. The bill also establishes application fees and civil fines for violations. The amendments will not take effect unless related bills (SB 103 and SB 105) are also enacted.
