Chapter 30-03-01.1 - Bait Vendors
Section 30-03-01.1-04 - License limitations

Retail or wholesale bait vendor licenses are issued for a calendar year to one person only. An individual may be issued only one wholesale license per calendar year. The holder of a retail bait vendor license may sell legal live aquatic bait at retail only, at one specified selling location per license. A wholesale bait vendor may only sell legal live aquatic bait to licensed bait vendors or for permitted private fish pond stocking. A person licensed as a wholesaler in any state may not act as an assistant under a North Dakota wholesaler license. Any bait vendor who violates this section is guilty of a noncriminal offense and shall pay a two hundred fifty dollar fee. Violations of state or federal game or fish laws may result in license denial, suspension, or revocation. An individual who has been convicted of a state or federal criminal game or fish violation in the last three years or whose license to hunt or fish is under suspension or revocation may not receive a wholesale bait vendor license. As used in this rule, "conviction" means a finding of guilt, a guilty plea, a plea of no contest, a plea of no lo contendere, a judgment of conviction even though the court suspended execution of a sentence in accordance with subsection 3 of North Dakota Century Code section 12.1-32-02, or a deferred imposition of sentence in accordance with subsection 4 of North Dakota Century Code section 12.1-32-02 or an equivalent statute. The term does not include a finding of guilt which is reversed on appeal.
