Summary


The proposed revisions to this rule add clarity and consistency to DWR and the Division of State Parks for mule deer and bighorn sheep permits on Antelope Island State Park. A cooperative agreement between DWR and State Parks will be entered into for the purpose of setting season dates and permit numbers, outlining hunt regulations on the island, establishing protocols for issuing permits and conducting antlerless deer hunts if needed, and defining procedures and conditions of transferring revenue derived from conservation permits valid on Antelope Island. Additionally, this rule change outlines requirements that organizations must abide by to participate in the conservation permit program. Specifically, participants must be a 501(c)(3) non-profit chartered organization that promotes the protection and preservation of one or more conservation permit species.
