Bill to create a program to educate about the perils of lead and an exchange of lead for nontoxic bullets.

The bill creates a two-year Nontoxic Bullet Pilot Program (program) in the Division of Parks and
Wildlife (Colorado Parks and Wildlife, CPW) in the Department of Natural Resources. The bill directs
CPW to work with one or more nongovernmental entities (NGE) to create and promote the program.
The program will allow individuals who satisfy certain requirements to receive vouchers to offset the
cost of purchasing non-lead bullets.


In addition, CPW and cooperating NGEs may develop educational materials about the program and
offer public demonstrations and educational activities at range spaces. CPW must also designate a
qualified entity to educate hunters about the benefits of hunting with nontoxic bullets and publicize
the pilot program. The program is repealed July 1, 2026. CPW may promulgate rules to implement
the program.


$32,000 each year from the Wildlife Cash Fund.

One one hand, lead has been proven toxic to humans. On the other hand, I much prefer less versus more government spending and intrusion in my life.
