This bill amends Arizona state statutes to reallocate fees collected from watercraft registration and infrastructure. It establishes a ‘watercraft fund’ and directs a portion of these fees to the watercraft licensing fund for boating safety programs and aquatic invasive species management. Additionally, it modifies the distribution of funds within the law enforcement and boating safety fund, prioritizing counties with established boating safety programs and considering factors like water usage, accident data, and county capacity.
