Current through August 31, 2023

Allocation of Tags for Capped General Hunt Units or Zones
.
			 Pursuant to Section
			 36-408, Idaho Code, the Commission
			 may allocate a number of deer and/or elk tags for use by hunters with signed
			 agreements with licensed outfitters in units or zones with limited numbers of
			 tags. The Commission may use this subsection or the allocated tag provisions of
			 Section 36-408, Idaho Code, to allocate
			 outfitter tags in capped general hunt units or zones. (3-31-22)
a. When the number of hunters in a general
			 hunt unit or zone becomes restricted, the Department will calculate the initial
			 number of allocated tags for each zone using the Idaho Outfitters and Guides
			 Licensing Board's records of average historic use during the previous five (5)
			 year period. Where it is biologically feasible, any reductions in the number of
			 tags available within a zone that exceed twenty percent (20%) will be spread
			 over a three (3) year period with a maximum reduction of fifty percent (50%)
			 taken in the first year and twenty-five percent (25%) in the second year.
			 (3-31-22)
b. The allocation of tags
			 will be calculated on a unit or zone basis. Any reduction or increase in
			 hunting opportunities will be proportionate among non-outfitted hunters and
			 outfitted hunters, and will be proportionate among resident and non-resident
			 hunters; EXCEPT where such reduction would result in an allocation of greater
			 than twenty-five percent (25%) for non-resident hunters, the Commission may
			 reduce the allocation for non-resident hunters to a percentage of not less than
			 twenty-five percent (25%). (3-31-22)
Idaho Administrative Code › Title IDAPA 13 - Fish and Game, Department of › Rule 13.01.04 - RULES GOVERNING LICENSING › Section 13.01.04.506 - DEER AND ELK TAG ALLOCATION IN GENERAL HUNTS LIMITED FOR NONRESIDENTS ONLY

Current through August 31, 2023
01.
Tag
			 Allocation
. When setting annual or biennial limits for general hunt deer
			 or elk tags available to nonresidents without resident limits, in zones, units,
			 or other hunt areas with historic outfitted hunter use, the Commission will
			 first allocate, on a corresponding biennial or annual basis, the number of tags
			 reserved for outfitted hunters equal to the Initial Tag Use Number determined
			 under this Section 506. The
			 Commission will subtract the number of tags so allocated from the nonresident
			 tag limit. Subject to a maximum of fifty percent (50%) of the remaining
			 nonresident tag limit, the Commission will allocate an additional number of
			 tags reserved for outfitted hunters corresponding to the number by which the
			 higher tag number from the Two-Year Verified Outfitter Use History exceeds the
			 Initial Tag Use Number for the hunt area. The number of tags remaining in the
			 nonresident limit after subtracting the Initial Tag Use Number, and any
			 additional tags allocated under this section, will be available for purchase as
			 non-allocated tags by outfitted or non-outfitted hunters. (4-6-23)
02.
Initial Tag Use Number
.
			 (4-6-23)
a. For general hunts first limited
			 for nonresidents while unlimited for residents in 2021 or subsequent years, the
			 Initial Tag Use Number for outfitted hunters is the higher tag use number of
			 the Two-Year Verified Outfitter Use History for 2021-2022, or the two (2) years
			 immediately preceding the first year the hunt area is limited, whichever period
			 is later. (4-6-23)
b. The
			 Commission will increase the Initial Tag Use Number for a deer unit subject to
			 a fifty percent (50%) restriction for allocated tag limits in 2021-2022,
			 corresponding to the reduction in outfitted hunter use demonstrated by
			 outfitter(s). (4-6-23)
c. If
			 general hunt tags are allocated under this Section
			 506 for elk zones capped for all
			 hunters before 2021, the Initial Tag Use Number will be the number determined
			 to be historic outfitted hunter use at the time of prior capping, if greater
			 than the otherwise applicable Two-Year Verified Outfitter Use History.
			 (4-6-23)
d. The Initial Tag Use
			 Number will remain the same for the zone, unit, or hunt area for subsequent
			 consecutive years in which nonresident tag limits apply.
