(b) Super-Combination License Package.

  (1) Net receipts from the sale of a super-combination license package shall be allocated to each license and stamp in the super-combination license package by means of a relative weighting calculated by using both the original price of the licenses and stamps and purchaser utilization, which shall be based on an average of survey results from the most recent three, four or five surveys conducted.

  (2) A survey to determine purchaser utilization shall be conducted once every three years.

(c) Combination License Revenue Allocation. Fishing stamps sold as part of a combination license package are not discounted. The full value of each endorsement (100% of the original price of each stamp) sold as part of a combination license package shall be allocated to each endorsement fund.
