Committee hears fee breakdown for HB 2091: residents $150, nonresidents $300, one‑day $50
Summary
During questioning, TWRA told the committee resident annual OHV permits would be $150, nonresident annual $300, and nonresident one‑day permits $50. Committee also discussed a $40 supplemental permit available to holders of an annual or lifetime sportsman's license.
Committee members pressed for clarity on the permit fee schedule underpinning House Bill 2091. Blair Beatty of the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency told lawmakers the fee varies by residency and duration: resident annual permits would be $150, nonresident annual permits $300, and a nonresident one‑day permit $50; the agency also discussed shorter duration options (1‑day, 3‑day, 7‑day).
Representatives also queried how existing sportsman's licenses would interact with the new permit. The committee discussed a supplemental $40 option tied to lifetime or annual sportsman's licenses that would provide the OHV permit privilege. TWRA did not have all usage and vendor participation numbers on hand but said it would provide those figures to the committee.
