Proposal to Change Baitfish Regs: DEC Accepting Comments


Recommended Posts

NYSDEC has announced proposed changes to current state regulations that ban the overland transport of uncertified baitfish, including baitfish that is personally collected. If the proposed revisions are adopted, the overland transport of personally collected baitfish within three specified transportation corridors would be allowed, as long as the baitfish are used in the same waterbody from which they were collected. There are also other minor changes being proposed.

Details of the transportation corridors and more information pertaining to the proposed modifications can be viewed on the Baitfish Transport Proposed Regulations webpage: http://www.dec.ny.gov/outdoor/73305.html

Anyone is invited to provide comments on the proposed rule-making during the 45-day public comment period that began April 6, 2011 and will end on May 23, 2011. Comments may be e-mailed to [email protected] or mailed to Shaun Keeler, New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, Bureau of Fisheries, 625 Broadway, Albany, NY 12233-4753.

Sincerely,
