Quote:[#000000]A Utah resident who has a service-connected disability of 20% or greater may purchase a discounted hunting, fishing or combination license upon furnishing verification of a service-connected disability.[/#000000]
Quote:[#000000]Veterans with disabilities are now eligible for discounted hunting and combination licenses and will also experience an easier application process. Veterans with disabilities were previously eligible for discounted fishing licenses, and as of July 1, the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources is now expanding that to include hunting and combination licenses.[/#000000]

[#000000]“We are appreciative of the sacrifices that members of our country’s armed forces make and wanted to show our gratitude,” DWR assistant director Mike Canning said. “We’d like to thank the Utah Legislature for making this opportunity possible, and we hope that by simplifying the application process and offering a discount that our veterans can more easily enjoy Utah’s wildlife and beautiful outdoors.” [/#000000]

[#000000]The discount will be offered to any veteran who is a Utah resident and has a qualifying service-connected disability of at least 20%. The new discounted hunting license is $25.50, instead of the $34 full price, and the new discounted combination license is $28.50, instead of the $38 full price. The discounted fishing licenses are still $12. All the licenses are good for 365 days from the day they are purchased.[/#000000]
I'm already buying the Combination license at the Senior rate of $29, but will be able to save an additional $0.50 on that license next year. Disabled Veterans under 65 years young can take advantage of the reduced fees immediately or when they renew. This is a good thing IMHO.
