Here\u2019s where the money goes.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It costs money to manage living marine resources, create and enhance fisheries habitat, and provide access and educational programs for the angling public. Officials rolled out the North Carolina Coastal Recreational Fishing License (CRFL) in 2007, in part, to assist in funding such tasks. The state requires that most saltwater anglers purchase a license in order to fish legally in the state. Visit the <a href=\"http:\/\/portal.ncdenr.org\/web\/mf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">NCDMF website<\/a> for specific information about CRFL requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once an angler purchases a CRFL, proceeds from the sale go into the Marine Resources Fund. (New lifetime licenses go into a separate fund.) The North Carolina General Assembly created the Marine Resources Fund to manage, protect, restore, develop, cultivate and enhance the marine resources of the state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But what happens to the money after it reaches the fund? More than a few times anglers have asked, \u201cWhere does my license fee go \u2014 and what do they spend it on?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Long story short: a portion of the fund supports the everyday activities of the North Carolina Division of Marine Fisheries (NCDMF), and a portion underwrites new or temporary expenditures that vary from year to year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since this is such a popular question, here\u2019s a look at how the state has used the Marine Resource Fund for these new or temporary expenditures from 2009 to 2017.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Where can you find information on projects that the&nbsp;Marine Resources Fund supports ?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>All of the information about the Marine Resources Fund and the CRFL is available on the <a href=\"http:\/\/portal.ncdenr.org\/web\/mf\/crfl-program\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">NCDMF website<\/a>.
