Boat decal fees fund public access
The law takes effect 60 days after passage and keeps the boat decal fee at $5. New Hampshire places that money and donated public-access funds into a dedicated Statewide Public Boat Access Fund. The Fish and Game Department has ongoing authority to spend the money only on the statewide public boat access program. Unspent money carries over between budget years. A specific exception provides the Department of Natural and Cultural Resources enough money to pay principal and interest on bonds and notes for the Mount Sunapee State Park beach boat ramp project.
