SB 152 West Virginia Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Providing waiver of fees for emergency responders disabled in line of duty for hunting, trapping, and fishing licenses

SB 152 would waive fees for hunting, trapping, and fishing licenses for West Virginia emergency responders who are totally disabled while on duty. To qualify, applicants must submit an affidavit from their department or agency confirming the disability occurred during work, along with any other required documentation. The state's Division of Natural Resources would process these requests and could establish specific application procedures through rules. This policy directly affects disabled emergency responders by eliminating the cost of recreational licenses.
