Businesses reimbursed for deer permit problems

March 25, 1997
By: Susan Batt
State Capital Bureau

Businesses who had problems with this year's new electronic deer hunting permits will receive some repayment from the state.

Susan Batt has the story from Jefferson City.

Story:
RunTime:
OutCue: SOC

The house has voted to give about 13-hundred stores that sold hunting permits two hundred and fifty dollars each to help pay for damages when the new electronic system had problems.

Potosi Representative Wayne Crump suggested the refund.

Actuality: Wayne Crump
RunTime:
OutCue: "...service these tags."
Contents: Stores were unable to sell their products because of the large crowds blocking the way. Some stores even had to feed people to keep them orderly.

The refunds were attached to next year's agriculture department budget.

In Jefferson City, I'm Susan Batt.
