Revise fines related to aquatic invasive species

This bill increases fines for illegally transporting aquatic invasive species in Montana and updates penalty structures for different types of violations. It directly affects individuals who transport or introduce invasive species into state waters, including boaters and anglers. The key changes raise maximum fines for negligent violations from $500 to $1,000 for first offenses and from $750 to $1,500 for subsequent offenses, while increasing fines for intentional violations from $975 to $1,950. Additionally, the bill maintains provisions allowing courts to confiscate fishing licenses and vessel decals for intentional violations, and establishes a felony penalty with up to two years in prison and fines up to $10,000 for knowingly attempting to introduce invasive species.
