A new law will make it
easier to transfer New York State fishing licenses among family members. The law is intended to benefit commercial fisheries
on the east end. It will improve the
efficiency of transferring certain commercial fishing licenses to immediate
family members if the license holder passes away prior to transfer.
Senator Ken LaValle’s
bill was signed into law last Tuesday, August 12th. This new law amended the previous environmental
conservation law that allowed the Department of Environmental Conservation to transfer
commercial fishing license to immediate family members. In the past, the law defined immediate family
members as those who lived with the license holder. Now however, family members, including
children and parents, are eligible to receive a transferred license even if
they do not live in the same household.
