HOUSE BILL NO. 406                                                             
                                                                               
"An Act relating to subsistence uses of fish and                               
game."                                                                         
                                                                               
Co-Chair Therriault distributed the packet of fiscal notes                     
for CS HB 406 (FIN).  He noted that he was working on an                       
amendment, to be presented on the House Floor, which would                     
fiscally alter non-subsistence areas.                                          
                                                                               
Representative Mulder MOVED to adopt the proposed fiscal                       
notes.  Representative Foster strongly OBJECTED.  He                           
commented that the amount of money requested in the fiscal                     
notes should be more rationally disbursed throughout the                       
State.  Representative Foster objected to the complexity of                    
the fiscal notes and the amount of government                                  
responsibility required by the proposed legislation.  He                       
urged the Committee to address the needs of the people more                    
directly.                                                                      
                                                                               
Representative Grussendorf remarked that the proposed                          
legislation does not address the reality of the problem,                       
and hence, the fiscal notes will not address a probable                        
situation.                                                                     
                                                                               
A roll call vote was taken on the motion to adopt the                          
fiscal notes.                                                                  
                                                                               
IN FAVOR: Mulder, G. Davis, Kelly, Martin, Therriault,                         
Hanley                                                                         
OPPOSED:  Moses, J. Davies, Grussendorf, Foster                                
                                                                               
Representative Kohring was not present for the vote.                           
                                                                               
The MOTION PASSED (6-4).                                                       
                                                                               
CS HB 406 (FIN) was reported out of Committee with a "do                       
not pass" recommendation and with fiscal notes by the                          
Department of Law, the Court System and six notes by the                       
Department of Fish and Game.
