Bill Summary
This bill requires examinations to be administered by conservation officers from the fish and game department.
AI Summary
This bill modifies existing law regarding guide licensing by requiring that all written or oral examinations for guide licenses be administered exclusively by conservation officers from the fish and game department, rather than potentially being conducted by other personnel. Specifically, the bill amends the existing Revised Statutes Annotated (RSA) 215:5 by adding a new paragraph that mandates conservation officers as the sole administrators of guide examinations. The bill will take effect 60 days after its passage, giving the fish and game department time to implement the new requirement. While the bill does not specify the type of guides (such as hunting, fishing, or wilderness guides), it broadly applies to any guide examination process within the department's jurisdiction, ensuring that only trained conservation officers will be responsible for testing and verifying the qualifications of potential guide license holders.
