Why are there fees?
By law, the Sikes Act (16 U.S.C. 670(b)) and the Sikes Act Improvement Act (SAIA) of 1997, allow installations to establish fees for hunting, fishing, and trapping. These fees must be used for fish and wildlife related expenses on the installation.
Additionally, per DoD Instruction 4715.03 and 32 Code of Federal Regulation part 190, collected fees are to be used on the installation from which they were collected specifically for the protection, conservation, and management of fish and wildlife. This includes habitat restoration projects, biological staff and support costs, and related activities.
This means that the money you pay is staying here at Atterbury-Muscatatuck and is used to help support the program. Current fee revenue helps cover the cost of the deploying the iSportsman platform. As the program grows, additional revenue will be able to be used to help support other parts of the fish and wildlife program at Atterbury-Muscatatuck.
