According to the Comptroller NY has some pretty big shoulders when it comes to hunting and fishing expenditures. And most stakeholders still have issues with the DEC's management of deer as a resource.

You would think this type of fiscal relationship would lead to better personnel and better management of the resource.

Yup! You would think!

What portion of those revenues do you think goes into the blackhole General Fund?

It would be interesting to see how all that money is apportioned across the wide responsibilities of the DEC. I know when we think of the DEC, we picture all kinds of fish and wildlife management. However, monitoring pollution and all the other environmental policing, investigations and records keeping are likely no small percentage of all that income.
