(a) There is established within the DFW, a program known as “The Invasive Species Eradication Community Program” to assist with the control of the population growth of vermin, nuisance and invasive species that negatively impact the Virgin Islands, including red-tail boa constrictors and caimans, by incentivizing members of the community to locate and euthanize these species; and to establish certification requirements for businesses that charge a fee for handling nuisance, vermin, and invasive species.
(b) Individuals who find bounty species on their private land may euthanize and donate the specimens to DFW. These individuals do not need to obtain a permit or be certified by DFW to euthanize and donate the specimens.
(c) Wildlife Control Operators and Wildlife Control Removal Agents shall euthanize bounty species at the time and sight of capture and may not transport living bounty species off the property without the prior authorization of DFW in accordance with procedures established by regulations pursuant to section 114.
