Bill Summary

An Act relating to game and fish; amending 29 O.S. 2021, Section 5-401, which relates to seasons and rules; amending the Wildlife Conservation Commission's authority; determining a certain earliest start date; and providing an effective date.

AI Summary

This bill amends existing Oklahoma law concerning game and fish regulations, specifically focusing on the authority of the Wildlife Conservation Commission. The key change is that the Commission is now authorized to declare an open season for bear hunting that includes a muzzleloader period running concurrently with the muzzleloader deer season and an archery period that must begin no later than September 15th each year and continue through the deer season. The bill also specifies an effective date of November 1, 2026, for these changes.
