Bill Summary

Authorizing a person to hunt in Carroll County on each Sunday of the game bird and game mammal seasons.

AI Summary

This bill amends Maryland's natural resources laws to allow hunting on Sundays in Carroll County during game bird and game mammal seasons without any time restrictions. Specifically, the legislation adds Carroll County to the list of counties where Sunday hunting is permitted, and removes any previous limitations on hunting times. The bill also modifies existing provisions that previously restricted Sunday hunting in certain counties to specific time frames (such as from 30 minutes before sunrise until 10:30 a.m.). Additionally, the bill allows Sunday hunting for deer and turkey in Carroll County during their respective seasons. The changes will take effect on July 1, 2025, expanding hunting opportunities for residents and hunters in Carroll County. This modification is part of a broader Maryland legislative approach that has gradually expanded Sunday hunting permissions across different counties, with varying restrictions based on local considerations and hunting seasons.
