SB 558 - HB 921
SUMMARY OF BILL: Replaces the term "firing" with "shooting" when referring to
recreational shooting ranges managed by the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency (TWRA).
Removes obsolete language regarding fee provisions for outdoor sport firing ranges.
FISCAL IMPACT:
NOT SIGNIFICANT
Assumptions:
• Changing the term in Tennessee Code Annotated, from “firing” to “shooting” does not
alter TWRA operations, require new materials, or generate additional expenditures for state
or local government.
• The fee provisions for outdoor sport firing ranges operating before July 1, 1998, are
outdated and no longer impact current operations. Public Chapter 1056 of 2024 clarified
TWRA’s authority to hire concessionaires, allowing TWRA to manage ranges without
relying on the obsolete fee.
CERTIFICATION:
The information contained herein is true and correct to the best of my knowledge.
