In addition to the following subparts, the methods for harvesting on public waters within the original boundaries of the Leech Lake Indian Reservation are subject to the provisions of this chapter to the extent that these provisions are not inconsistent with this part.
Persons eligible to harvest wild rice in the reservation must adequately identify themselves to the reservation business committee or its agents and obtain a reservation permit to harvest wild rice. The reservation business committee may charge a fee for reservation permits. The fee for reservation permits sold to nontribal members must be the same as that charged to tribal members. The reservation permit must be carried upon the person while engaged in harvesting and displayed to authorized state or reservation conservation officers upon request.
Persons, other than tribal members, harvesting wild rice on the reservation must possess a license to harvest wild rice in addition to the reservation permit.
Non-Indian wild rice buyers buying wild rice within the reservation must possess a buyer's permit from the reservation business committee in addition to a state wild rice dealer's license.
