CHAPTER 202
S.P. 375 - L.D. 1213
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Maine as follows:
Sec. 1. 12 MRSA §7406, sub-§12, as repealed and replaced by PL 1991, c. 824, Pt. A, §21, is amended to read:
12. Hunting without hunter orange clothing. A person is guilty of hunting without hunter orange clothing if that person hunts with firearms during the open firearm season on deer and fails to wear 2 articles of solid-colored hunter orange clothing that are in good, serviceable condition and visible from all sides, except that persons hunting waterfowl from a boat or blind or in conjunction with waterfowl decoys need not wear hunter orange clothing. One article of clothing must be a solid-colored hunter orange hat. The other article of clothing must cover a major portion of the torso, such as a jacket, vest, coat or poncho, and must be a minimum of 50% hunter orange in color. The presence of a decal on an article of clothing that is otherwise solid-colored hunter orange does not disqualify that article of clothing from satisfying the requirements of this subsection.
Effective September 21, 2001, unless otherwise indicated.
