SCR 51 Kentucky Senate · 2025 Regular Session

A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION commemorating the 75th anniversary of the Sport Fish Restoration Program as part of the American System of Conservation Funding.

SCR 51 is a Kentucky legislative resolution commemorating the 75th anniversary of the Sport Fish Restoration Program, established by the 1950 Federal Aid in Sport Fish Restoration Act. It recognizes anglers, the sportfishing industry, state wildlife agencies, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service for their role in creating a conservation funding model that uses excise taxes on fishing gear and boat fuels to support fish habitat restoration and management. The resolution directs the Senate clerk to send a copy to Kentucky's wildlife department and congressional representatives, encouraging broader recognition of this program. It does not create new laws or funding but formally honors the program's history as the foundation of America's largest conservation funding effort.
