Bill > H1075

This bill amends Section 66 of Chapter 131 of the Massachusetts General Laws, which relates to hunting regulations. Specifically, the bill gives the director of the state's natural resources department (under the control of the board) the authority to create regulations about the types of shotgun ammunition that can be used for hunting. This change appears to provide more flexible regulatory power to the director, allowing them to establish and update rules about acceptable shotgun ammunition for hunting purposes without requiring a full legislative process to make changes. By replacing the entire existing section with this new language, the bill simplifies and broadens the director's regulatory discretion regarding shotgun ammunition used in hunting activities.
