Anyone heard what the Utah DWR is planning to do with the 30% revenue they collect from the $5.00 permit application fee? The below paragraph is on the Western Hunt Expo website. The last sentence is somewhat striking...
"Hunters are charged a $5 per-permit application fee when they apply in the expo permit drawing. The DWR must approve in advance how 30 percent of these funds are spent. Expo organizers (SFW and MDF) spend the remaining 70 percent on policies, programs, projects and personnel that support a significant number of conservation initiatives across the state of Utah. All of the $5 application fee revenue directly benefits wildlife conservation in Utah."
