Allows voluntary vessel registration donations for salmon level preservation through the sea lion predation control account.
This bill allows vessel owners to make voluntary donations of $1 or more when registering their vessels. These donations will be directed to the sea lion predation control account, which is established to manage pinniped populations in the lower Columbia River area to preserve salmon levels. The donations are voluntary and can be refused by the vessel owner. The funds collected will be used for activities related to managing pinniped populations and cannot be used to replace existing funds for wildlife management.
