Except as provided in this chapter, all moneys derived from the sale of licenses
or from any other source connected with the administration of this chapter shall
be promptly paid over to the State Treasurer, who shall deposit such moneys in
a special fund, known as the game and fish fund, except that the moneys shall
be entered under separate restricted fund accounts, not commingled, and
maintained according to generally accepted accounting principles. Moneys
derived from the sale of licenses issued under this chapter shall be under
separate restricted fund account from any other proceeds derived from this
chapter or from proceeds obtained under any other chapter. The game and fish
fund shall be used to carry out the purposes of this chapter and any law or
regulation for the protection of wildlife and for no other purpose.
All funds received under KRS 150.110 and 150.520 shall be used by the
department for the purpose of enforcing those sections and for the protection
and propagation of mussel beds. Any surplus remaining in the fund at the close
of each calendar year shall be turned into the general fund of the department.
In addition to the funds derived pursuant to KRS 186.050(15), the department
shall, beginning August 1, 2006, and each fiscal year thereafter, set aside not
less than twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000) from the game and fish fund
for the purpose of promoting hunger relief through specific wildlife management
and conservation efforts. The department shall provide for a separate
accounting of these funds and shall, by October 1, 2007, and annually
thereafter, report on the expenditures made pursuant to this subsection to the
Governor and the Legislative Research Commission.
The department shall prescribe a method to allow any applicant for a license
required under KRS 150.175 to make, at the time of application, a voluntary
contribution in the amount of two dollars ($2) for the Becoming an
Outdoors-Woman Program or other hunter and angler recruitment and
retention program. The voluntary contribution shall be deposited into a
separate, restricted account within the game and fish fund. The Becoming an
Outdoors-Woman Program shall encourage women in developing skills for
outdoor recreational activities including but not limited to hunting and angling.
The voluntary contribution shall be automatically added to the cost of the
license at the time of sale.
