Bill > LD1142

This bill is a concept draft that proposes to authorize the Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife to provide reimbursement to volunteers participating in the "Hooked on Fishing - Not on Drugs" program. A concept draft is a preliminary legislative proposal that outlines the general intent of a potential law without specifying detailed implementation. In this case, the bill aims to support a program that likely uses fishing as a positive youth engagement activity, potentially helping to prevent drug use or provide constructive recreational opportunities for young people. However, because this is a concept draft, the specific details of how volunteers would be reimbursed, what expenses might be covered, and the exact criteria for reimbursement are not yet defined. The bill represents an initial step in exploring potential financial support for volunteers who contribute their time and effort to this community-focused program.
