Local News | Oregon's hunting and fishing license fees may go up | Seattle Times Newspaper: "MEDFORD, Ore. — The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife says it will hold a dozen public meetings throughout Oregon as it puts together a budget that calls for higher hunting and fishing license fees.

It says fees were last raised generally in 2004, and they make up a third of the department's budget, which totals $262 million for the current two-year period.

The Medford Mail Tribune reported that a combination hunting-fishing license would rise from $43.75 now to at least $50 and as much as $55 under the proposal the department is considering."
