2014 Annual Report • Nebraska Game and Parks Commission 51
tax receipts from motorboat, ATV/UTV
sales and leases from October 2014
through September 2019. While most
of the fund names are self-descriptive, a
few of the more critical warrant further
explanation.
General Fund is supported by money
collected by the State Department of
Revenue, deposited with the State
Treasurer and appropriated by the
Legislature. General Fund money is
appropriated to the Commission for
those operating activities that are not
self-supporting (primarily operations of
the state park system and non-game
and endangered species activities);
administrative activities that are general
in nature, applicable to the entire
agency and difficult to prorate among
the various other funding sources;
and activities that extend beyond the
statutory use of the various cash funds.
Game Fund derives its revenues from
a variety of sources, including hunting
and fishing permit sales, Federal Aid
reimbursements and interest earnings.
This fund is the largest source of
funding for the agency and serves as
the primary funding source for fish and
wildlife activities.
