New Jersey Waterfowl Stamp Act

New Jersey · Fish and Game, Wild Birds and Animals · §§ 23:3-1 to 23:3-9 · 132 sections

Overview

The New Jersey Waterfowl Stamp Act governs the licensing of hunting, fishing, and trapping in New Jersey, setting out who must hold a license or permit, the fees charged, and the exemptions available to groups such as National Guard members and disabled veterans. It directs how license revenue is collected and handled, requiring issuing officers to make periodic returns to the state treasurer and channeling proceeds into dedicated funds and accounts for fish and wildlife purposes. The act also regulates the taking, sale, and shipment of game — including permits for wild turkey, propagation and commercial shooting preserves, and restrictions on certain arrows — and backs these requirements with penalties, an appeal route to the council, and a remedial sportsmen education program.
