Explanation of above estimates (including long-range effect):
The cost of complying with the administrative requirements to collect and disperse the funds is estimated to require 4 hours by an employee making $31.25/hour (salary plus fringe).
This cost is offset assuming $2500 in donations yearly (2500 X 5% = 125)
Memorandum
Potential Hunting and Fishing License revenue diversion issues are avoided through the ability of the WVDNR to recoup administrative and processing costs from donated funds.
