Among the technical fixes and trailer bills being approved by JFAC this morning is one to give Parks & Rec spending authority to run the new quagga and zebra mussel boat sticker program, which has passed both houses and has an emergency clause. The parks department will need to spend $65,000 of the fees from the new boat stickers to set up and run the program; it’ll also get authority to transfer $1.5 million in fees to the invasive species fund for the new program, once the fees come in. The $5 to $20 stickers could be ready to paste onto Idaho boats, motorized or not, by June. The appropriation bills won unanimous votes on JFAC.
