#2005-3 The Legislative Budget and Finance Committee, pursuant to House Resolution 2005-61, is seeking to contract with a risk assessment specialist to conduct a study on the use of rifles versus shotguns within the Commonwealth and recommend whether special regulations areas should be expanded. This study is to be done in coordination with the Pennsylvania Game Commission. The study must include, but is not limited to: (1) ballistics; (2) projectile construction; (3) projectile type; (4) topography; (5) land use; (6) population density; and (7) structure density. The specific study objectives are: (1) To compile and analyze existing technical and scientific data on the safety of rifles versus shotguns and muzzleloading firearms for hunting. This effort should primarily focus on errant projectiles from such firearms. (2) To conduct a spatial risk assessment analysis of the use of rifles versus shotguns and muzzleloading firearms in Pennsylvania taking into consideration all relevant factors as listed above, and also including species hunted, hunter density, and forest cover. This will specifically involve a detailed examination and analysis of the errant shot database compiled by the Pennsylvania Game Commission between 1998 and 2005. (3) Based on the results of study activities in tasks (1) and (2), develop information for the Pennsylvania Game Commission and the Pennsylvania General Assembly to consider whether special regulations areas should be expanded in Pennsylvania. (4) To identify any other alternative actions (other than prohibiting rifle use and/or prohibiting hunting entirely) the Commission might consider taking to improving hunting safety in populated areas. Contractor proposals in response to this RFP must be submitted to the LB&FC by noon on August 8, 2005.
