AI Analysis – Experimental

Senate Bill No. 957 proposes an amendment to the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act of 1994 (PA 451). The bill seeks to add Section 43547a, which stipulates that the Department of Natural Resources cannot refuse to renew the authorization for an agent to issue licenses based on sales volume, provided the agent has been authorized for at least five years and has sold a minimum of $1,000 worth of sportcards, licenses, duplicate licenses, applications, or permits in the previous license year. This legislation aims to ensure that long-standing authorized agents who meet these criteria can continue their operations without the risk of non-renewal due to insufficient sales. The term "authorized agent" is defined within the bill as any person authorized to issue licenses under this part of the act.
