     6     Section 1.  Section 501 of Title 30 of the Pennsylvania
     7  Consolidated Statutes is amended to read:
     8  § 501.  Refund of moneys paid erroneously or unjustly.
     9     Whenever the commission is satisfied that any fee, fine or
    10  any other money was erroneously or unjustly paid into the State
    11  Treasury under any of the provisions of this title, [the
    12  commission may by resolution, within two years after the
    13  payment, direct the executive director to draw a requisition
    14  upon the Fish Fund or Boat Fund, as appropriate, for the amount

    16  minutes of the commission,] a refund shall be paid in favor of


     1  the person from whom the fee, fine or other money was
     2  erroneously or unjustly collected. When an unused license or
     3  boat registration is returned to the commission in the unopened
     4  envelope in which it was delivered, the applicable fee therefor
     5  shall be deemed to have been erroneously collected.
     6     Section 2.  This act shall take effect immediately.
