INTRODUCED BY   Senator La Malfa

                        FEBRUARY 17, 2011

   An act relating to fish.


	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   SB 505, as introduced, La Malfa. Fish: licenses: trout hatcheries.

   Existing law authorizes the Fish and Game Commission to issue a
permit, subject to restrictions and regulations that the commission
deems desirable, to a nonprofit organization to construct and operate
an anadromous fish hatchery and prohibits the commission from
issuing a permit unless it determines the nonprofit organization has
the financial capability to successfully construct and operate the
hatchery and will diligently and properly conduct the operation
authorized under the permit. All fish handled under this authority
during the time they are in the hatchery or in the wild are the
property of the state and when in the wild are allowed to be taken
under the authority of a sport or commercial fishing license as
otherwise authorized for wild fish.
   This bill would state the intent of the Legislature to enact
legislation to address the allocation of fishing license fees and
trout hatcheries.
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: no.
State-mandated local program: no.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  SECTION 1.  It is the intent of the Legislature to enact
legislation to address the allocation of fishing license fees and
trout hatcheries.
