Prior to 2012 all Discover/WDFW Pass fine money was handled like all other fines. 32% goes to the state general fund and the county keeps the remaining 68%.
In 2012 legislation was passed that all Discover/WDFW pass fine money would go into the Recreation Pass Account which is where the money from the sales of the Discover/WDFW pass goes.
This bill, would go back to the "old" form of 32% going to the state, and 68% going to the county. The only change is, the 32% that goes to the state would not go into the general fund, but rather into the Recreation Pass Account.

Kline again........No............ funny how state agencies love to spend our money fighting over how much of our money they can get in Olympia
Actually State Parks was against having the fine money going into the Discover Pass account
