ODWC is proposing emergency rules to create a Waterfowl and Crane Outfitter and Guide License under Subchapter 7, Part 9, including sections 800:25-7-42, 800-25-42-1 (Purpose), and 800:25-42-2 (License and fee requirements) as authorized by SB2095. These rules will establish a new licensing regime and fee structure for guides and outfitters operating in waterfowl and crane hunting. Standing up this license category will require processes for applications, fee collection, license issuance, and compliance monitoring.Vendors offering online licensing platforms, payment processing, customer portals, and compliance management tools can engage ODWC to support efficient implementation, especially if the department is looking to modernize licensing systems or integrate this new license into existing platforms.

SB2095 authorizes ODWC to establish rules for waterfowl and crane outfitter and guide licenses; supporting systems may need to be updated or built to handle new license types and fees.
