AI Summary

This bill amends the Massachusetts General Laws to allow the director of the state's Department of Fish and Wildlife, with the approval of the board, to establish a season for deer hunting using rifles, revolvers, or pistols. The director can establish these hunting seasons in appropriate deer hunting zones, taking into account factors such as human population and housing densities. This provides more flexibility in regulating deer hunting methods and locations to address local conditions.
