Bill Summary
AN ACT TO PROVIDE FOR THE CONTROL AND PREVENTION OF INVASIVE SPECIES IN NORTH CAROLINA.
AI Summary
This bill proposes to establish the Invasive Species Management Fund, which would be used to manage, control, and eradicate invasive species in North Carolina. It defines "invasive species" to include coyotes, European starlings, feral swine, grass carp, lionfish, and other species determined to be a threat by the Wildlife Resources Commission. The bill also requires the Wildlife Resources Commission to establish open seasons and take requirements for hunting and trapping invasive species, and to develop programs to encourage control of invasive species. The bill appropriates $5 million in recurring funds to the Invasive Species Management Fund starting in the 2024-2025 fiscal year.
