DNR rule relating to prohibitions when hunting and trapping
This bill authorizes West Virginia's Division of Natural Resources (DNR) to establish rules about hunting and trapping prohibitions. It specifically approves a previously developed rule (58 CSR 47), which was modified to address concerns raised by the Legislative Rule-Making Review Committee. The rule affects hunters and trappers by outlining specific restrictions on when and where they may hunt or trap wildlife. The bill itself does not create new prohibitions but formalizes an existing regulatory framework.
