New DEC Sporting and Game System Online

The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation’s (DEC) new computerized sporting licensing system is operational, allowing sportsmen and sportswomen to conduct license transactions.

The transition of hunter, angler and trapper data required a temporary shutdown for sales of hunting, fishing and trapping licenses, recreational marine fishing registrations and harvest game reporting. The data transfer has been completed and individuals can resume normal transactions and reporting on the new system.

Individuals who were unable to report harvest data during the temporary shutdown were given a grace period for reporting of this data. With the system now operational, all harvest data that has not been reported must be submitted by January 20, 2014.

Hunters, anglers, and trappers are able to purchase sporting licenses, stamps and permits:

at one of the nearly 1,500 locations across New York State;
via telephone (1-866-933-2257); or
via the internet at https://aca.dec.accela.com/dec/
