Bill > HB2030

This bill repeals existing statutory requirements related to raccoon hunting in Tennessee, specifically sections 70-4-112 and 70-4-122 of the Tennessee Code Annotated. By removing these specific laws, the bill grants the Tennessee Fish and Wildlife Commission, the state agency responsible for managing wildlife, the authority to regulate raccoon hunting through its own proclamations and rules, rather than being bound by detailed legislative mandates. This shift in authority is intended to allow for more flexible and responsive management of raccoon populations and hunting practices.
