3. a. When the Division of Fish and Wildlife receives notice of the suspension of the hunting, fishing, or trapping privileges of a person by a participating state, the division shall determine whether the violation leading to the suspension could lead to the suspension of privileges under State law, rule, or regulation. If the division determines that the suspension of privileges in the issuing state would initiate the suspension of a person's privileges according to State law, rule, or regulation, the division may suspend the license privileges of that person to hunt, fish, or trap in New Jersey for the same period imposed by the issuing state not to exceed the time period prescribed by corresponding State law, rule, or regulation. The division shall provide written notification to the person of the suspension of their privileges to take or possess wildlife in New Jersey and the reason for the suspension. b. When the Division of Fish and Wildlife receives notification of the conviction of a New Jersey resident from a licensing authority of a participating state, the division may suspend the resident's hunting, fishing, or trapping privileges, or other privileges to take or possess wildlife, if the conviction can be treated as if the violation had occurred in this State. The division shall determine if the conviction from a participating state would satisfy the suspension requirements of the resident's hunting, fishing, or trapping privileges, or other privileges to take or possess wildlife in New Jersey pursuant to Title 23, Title 50, and chapter 24 of Title 58 of the Revised Statutes and any rules and regulations adopted pursuant thereto. When the division determines the violation is a violation which can be considered for a suspension in New Jersey by (1) pre-requisite of an accumulation of violations, or (2) cause of collateral consequence, a suspension due to the nature of the violation corresponding with prescribed penalties of Title 23, Title 50, and chapter 24 of Title 58 of the Revised Statutes and any rules and regulations adopted pursuant thereto, the division may suspend the resident's privileges to hunt, fish, or trap in this State for the same period imposed by the issuing state, not to exceed the time period prescribed by corresponding State law, rule, or regulation. The division shall provide written notification to the person of their suspension of privileges to take or possess wildlife in New Jersey in compliance with this act. c. When notice of suspension is sent to a person, the person shall immediately surrender any current New Jersey wildlife licenses to the division. d. A person whose privileges have been suspended and who hunts, fishes, or traps in this State, who applies for or purchases any license or permit to hunt, fish, or trap in this State, or who refuses to surrender any current hunting, fishing, or trapping license as required, shall be subject to penalties and sanctions prescribed in Title 23, Title 50, and chapter 24 of Title 58 of the Revised Statutes, and any rules and regulations adopted pursuant thereto.
