State Boating Act

This bill amends federal law to clarify how states collect boating-related fees. It requires states to collect specific fees for search and rescue operations, boating safety programs, and efforts to address aquatic invasive species. These fees can be collected alongside existing state boating registration or licensing fees. The bill directly affects states that issue boating licenses or registrations, as it changes the permitted fee structure for those programs. It does not create new fees but specifies which existing fee categories must be included.
