[QUOTE="Boondoggle, post: 248201, member: 6537"] Does anybody know who is paying for this wonderful database proposal? The original version was an opt-in program where the database would allow the landowner to show land open for hunting. The amended version is completely different such that all land would be considered open unless the land was signed up in the database. I'll take a wild guess and say 50% of the 38 million acres would need to be processed in the database. That's 19 million acres. The State also estimated one staff could administer 500 agreements annually. Using the average 300 acres/agreement number in the fiscal note, that equates to roughly 63,000 agreements (19 million acres/300 acres per agreement). That equates to 127 FTE required to administer the agreements in the database. The current FTE level for the entire NDGF is around 160. Does anybody know who would be in charge of supporting the database? The State? The State via a contract with private industry? If private, then add a percentage for profit to the total cost, say 10%. The proposed database in all versions of SB 2315 is a big waste of time and money. [/QUOTE]
