HB 229 Makes changes in statute recommended by members of the Big Game Commercial Services Board addressing changes to rules regarding the administration and licensing of guides.

Big game guides are regulated under statute and regulation and oversight is provided by the Big Game Commercial Service Board. The proposed changes provide more flexibility in where guides can work when contracting with another guide, allows a registered guide-outfitter more flexibility in the use of class-A guides, and changes penalties for minor procedural violations by guides.
