Darey Inland Fisheries and Game Fund is reimbursed annually for revenue lost due to the issuance of discounted and free hunting and fishing licenses. The fund, which supports inland fisheries and game management, will receive compensation from the state's general fund to offset these losses. This reimbursement aims to maintain the fund's financial stability and support ongoing conservation and recreational activities.
