58 Pa. Code § 51.35 - Operation of the issuing agency
(a) A
person, sole proprietorship, partnership or corporation may apply to become an
issuing agent of the Commission for the purpose of selling fishing licenses. An
applicant seeking to become an issuing agent shall complete and submit to the
Commission an application on the form prescribed by the Commission and shall
pay a one-time, nonrefundable fee of $100. Applications shall be accompanied by
a bond in favor of the Commission, or other security in a form satisfactory to
the Commission, in a minimum amount specified by the Executive Director or
designee.
(b) An entity accepted by
the Commission to act as an issuing agent shall perform in the following
manner:
(1) An issuing agent, including county
treasurers, may not appoint subagents to issue fishing licenses, stamps or
permits.
(2) Issuing agents shall
file monthly reports of all fishing licenses, stamps and permits sold during
the month in the manner determined by the Commission. Agents may file reports
more frequently at the discretion of the agent.
(i) Agents shall include in their monthly
reports detailed sales information and remittance for all licenses, stamps and
permits sold during the reporting period.
(ii) Agents shall file their reports so that
they are received in the Harrisburg office by the 15th of the month following
the reportable month.
(iii) Agents
shall file a report even if there is no sales activity to report for the month.
Failure to file a report places the agency in a delinquent status.
(iv) Agents shall indicate their agent number
on the report, as well as the remittance.
(3) Issuing agents shall retain the third
copy of the license certificate for 1 year after the close of any given license
year.

not borrow, lend or otherwise transfer a supply of licenses, stamps or permits
to another agent without the prior written consent of the Commission.
(6) An issuing agent or an issuing agent's
employe may not provide false or misleading information on a license issued.
The date reported on a license sold shall be the date of the actual
sale.
