The Big Game Commercial Services Board, a division of the Department of Commerce, Community, and Economic Development in Juneau, AK, is responsible for overseeing and regulating the big game commercial services industry in the state. The board consists of licensed Registered Guide-Outfitters, Transporters, private landholders, public members, and a representative from the Board of Game, all appointed by the Governor and confirmed by the Legislature. They recently adopted emergency regulations regarding federal concession permits for guide-outfitters and master guide-outfitters, with a proposal to make these changes permanent.
License renewal for big game commercial service providers is available online through the MY LICENSE portal, with immediate renewal for most cases. The division has discontinued mailing hardcopy license certificates and licensees can now download their own certificates from their MY LICENSE account. The board also offers training courses and maintains a listserv for subscribers to receive meeting notifications, board meeting agendas, and notices of proposed changes to regulations.
