Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Wildlife Code. Authorizes the issuance of landowner deer, turkey, and combination permits to landowners, resident tenants, and bona fide equity shareholders, members, or partners with at least 20 acres in a county where the Department of Natural Resources has positively identified chronic wasting disease cases in the deer herd (rather than 40 acres of land).

House Floor Amendment No. 1
Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Amends the Wildlife Code. In provisions regarding special deer, turkey, and combination hunting licenses, provides that Landowner Deer permits shall be issued without charge to (1) Illinois landowners residing in the State who own at least 20 acres in a county where the Department of Natural Resources has identified chronic wasting disease in the deer herd and who wish to hunt upon their land only; (2) resident tenants of at least 20 acres of commercial agricultural land in a county where the Department has identified chronic wasting disease in the deer herd where they will hunt and who wish to hunt upon the land they are tenants of only; and (3) persons with certain ownership interests regarding 20 acres of land in a county where the Department has identified chronic wasting disease in the deer herd and who wish to hunt on the relevant land only, with certain requirements. Requires rulemaking for fees and procedures with respect to nonresidents who own at least 20 acres of land.
