Message: <blockquote data-quote="Dirty" data-source="post: 248149" data-attributes="member: 6535">[FONT=&quot]Here's the letter I got back from one of the sponsors of this bill, Robert ErbeleWhat does SB2315 do? It is a pro hunter and a pro landowner bill[/FONT][FONT=&quot]For the hunter….[/FONT][FONT=&quot]1. Nothing changes for the ethical hunter. until the system is in place it will be business as usual. The hunter will still need to seek permission to hunt posted land.[/FONT][FONT=&quot]2. The database once operational will provide better access, as it takes out the guesswork of who owns the land, and what land is open without asking. .a. green or some other indicator would be lands open to hunting. It is the default designation and the landowner does not need to do anything in regards to registering on the database.[/FONT][FONT=&quot]b. yellow would be land open to hunting with permission. No difference from what hunters do now when they are seeking a relationship with a landowner. The landowner will be required to provide contact information on the database. The hunter will now know who to contact no matter where the land is located, and the landowner will know who is on the land. c. red would be land closed to hunting, which is no different than finding a posted sign and the landowner says no. However, that does not prohibit the hunter from asking or the owner granting permission. Remember it is always about building good relationships.[/FONT][FONT=&quot]For the landowner…………[/FONT][FONT=&quot]1. Once the system is in place the landowner can post online saving the time and expense of physical posting.[/FONT][FONT=&quot]2. Land open to hunting requires no action (green)[/FONT][FONT=&quot]3. Land where the owner wants to control access and requires permission will require providing contact information on a secure site. (yellow)[/FONT][FONT=&quot]4. Owner can close land to hunting. (red) i.e. areas around farmsteads or pastures with cattle.[/FONT][FONT=&quot]5. Hunting trespass penalties apply during the hunting seasons in posted red and yellow zones. At all other times private land is protected by the criminal tresspass law.[/FONT]</blockquote>
