    You'll find the interim committee for the aftermath of SB 2315 and HB 1021 (the end-around, last-ditch tack-on by Erbele to get the "study" pertaining to land access and three-county "trial" database) on Pg. 28 of the document below...

    SB 2315 - Sneaky Underhanded BS

    I know this sounds insane, but I just received word (while on vacation) that in the late hours of this likely final day of the session, they are attempting to add SB 2315 to SB 2015 (another unrelated appropriations bill) which will be up for a vote TONIGHT. Anyone who reads this needs to...

    HB 1021 - "The Database" End-Around

    For everyone's knowledge, you'll note that the infamous database for hunter access has been sneakily tacked on to HB 1021 (an unrelated appropriations bill) as a study over the interim. https://www.legis.nd.gov/assembly/66-2019/documents/19-0209-04000.pdf (Pg 3, Line 9) Since we haven't...

    The "Final" SB 2315 - Worst of Both Worlds

    The final version of SB 2315 will be the worst of both worlds: 1) Everything's Posted; and 2) A study on how to make an electronic database. The version of the House Ag Amendments released at 5 pm today ARE AT THIS LINK. Of key note are lines 17-24 on Page 7 – ALL LANDS ARE POSTED. ALL...

    Updated SB 2315 Online

    As expected, the final amended version of SB 2315 just went up on bill tracker. https://www.legis.nd.gov/assembly/66-2019/documents/19-0896-02000.pdf I see they've added the infraction portion, and have now included members from an "agriculture committee" and "sportsmen committee" as public...

    The "NEW" SB 2315 - Pucker Up Buttercup!

    Well, as expected the NEW SB 2315 AS AMENDED is EVEN WORSE (and waaay sneakier) than the original. It has now become more confusing and anti-hunter than the original version. There are glaring issues in the new effort slopped together by Senator Erbele in his desperation to get a win for his...

    SB 2315 - Ag Committee Recap

    The Ag Committee hearing on SB 2315 went about as I expected. The landowner reps probably outnumbered sportsmen at the testimony 3:2, but many of them were there as part of a dog-and-pony show for one presenter, who made them all stand. They did not speak. I left feeling like we will need to...
