A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
AN ACT TO CHANGE THE LAW PROHIBITING HUNTING IN ANSON COUNTY WITHOUT THE WRITTEN PERMISSION OF THE LANDOWNER.
The General Assembly of North Carolina enacts:
Section 1.  Section 1 of Chapter 231 of the 1987 Session Laws reads as rewritten:
	"Section 1.  It is unlawful to hunt deer on the land of another unless the hunter has, on his person, a writing signed and dated by the owner or lessee of the land granting the hunter permission to hunt deer on said land.  If the land is owned or leased by a club, the president of the club shall issue the permission to hunt.  Unless otherwise specified in the writing, the written permission shall be valid for one year.  The written permission shall be displayed upon request to any law enforcement officer with authority to enforce this act.
For the purposes of this section, a hunter not physically present on another person's land shall be considered to be hunting on such land if, during the season for hunting deer with firearms, the person allows a dog under his ownership, possession, or control to run upon or cross another person's land to hunt deer.
For the purposes of this act, the term ‘to hunt' has the same meaning as under G.S. 113-130(5a)."
Sec. 2. This act is effective upon ratification.
