Sounds like a win/ win.
But what is a guzzler repair?

A Guzzler is a concrete structure designed to collect rain water it has an opening that wildlife can access for a drink
We had a motion activated camera at one time and somewhere I have a photo of three Chucker (game birds) next to a four foot Diamondback rattlesnake only three feet apart the chucker were all more interested in getting water then the threat of the snake

Its a big ground level roof type structure that has a gutter and all rai and snow go underground into the fiberglass tank that has a concrete opening ( so animals don't break it)

Then when less rain and snow happens hunting clubs haul water in by truck. Birds. and Deer antelope and Elk drink it FD

Why only 50% All money taken in by fish and game should go back to fish and game related expenses.

Good question the courts do with the other 50% what ever they do with all fines could be the judges salary

I don't expect that is where the money is going. I expect it is going into the general fund. If judges worked for a percent of fines, I think Superior Court Judges would be fighting for traffic magistrate jobs.
