§4220. Registration for artificial propagation.

(a) Application.--Application to register for artificial propagation shall be made on forms, prepared by the department, which relate to the size, character and purpose of the facility to be used for propagation. The species of fish to be propagated and each separate propagation facility as well as any other information required by the department shall also be indicated on the forms.

(b) Registration and fees.--The department may register applicants for artificial propagation upon receipt of a written application signed by the applicant after the applicant has paid a fee of $150 to the department. Registration allows the registered operator to propagate all approved species of fish. The department shall establish a system to provide unique identification to a facility for the duration of that facility's continuous commercial existence. A registration shall expire five years after the initial date of registration. A registration may be renewed for an additional five-year period upon payment of the fee.
