KUAN CtuMP Depuy An-omey era SUBJECT: REQUESTED BY: OPINION BY:. QUESTION,: CONCLUSION: Hunting and Fishing Fee Exemptions for Senior and Disabled Veterans. John F. Simmons, Deputy County Attorney, Banner County, Nebraska Robert M. Spire, Attorney General Laura L. Freppel, Assistant Attorney General Is a habitat stamp a fee from which disabled veterans and senior citizens are exempted? Yes. Under Neb.Rev.Stat. SS37-214.03 and 37-214.04, disabled veterans and senior citizens are exempt from the payment of any fees provided by the laws of the State of Nebraska for the privilege of fishing or hunting. These exemptions, however, do not apply to the privilege of commercial fishing; the trapping of fur-bearing animals; the hunting for deer, antelope, wild turkey, or any other species of fish and game on which the open season is limited to a restricted number of permits; or to special permits for a restricted area or game management unit. Section 37-216.01 requires all residents over the age of 16 years and all non-residents to obtain a habitat stamp. The habitat stamp is issued upon the payment of $7.50. Throughout 537-216, the revenues collected from the issuance of habitat stamps are variously referred to as monies, fees, and funds. A habitat stamp, then, represents 'a fee charged for the privilege of hunting and fishing. On their face, the statutes conflict since neither statute specifically refers to the other.
