				process of such organized field trial events, no guns using live ammunition
				shall be used nor shall any game animals or birds be taken or killed. Further,
				during the course of approved hunting dog field trials (which trials shall only
				be conducted pursuant to possession of a valid permit from the Department of
				Conservation and Natural Resources), only properly marked pen-raised quail or
				mallard ducks may be shot. Provided the organization receives a permit as
				provided for herein, the shooter, or person bearing the gun, will not be
				required to have a hunting license. Only one person at a time may possess a gun
				during the course or stations of a permitted field trial where such quail or
				ducks will be shot. An organized field trial permit where such quail or ducks
				are taken will only be issued for a predesignated marked course or hunting dog
				trial stations. Approval of the local conservation officer (or Commissioner's
				designee) will be required prior to the issuance of a hunting dog field trial
				permit where such quail or ducks are to be taken. Permits for organized field
				trials will be limited to three permits per organization per year and will only
				be issued for periods from September 1 through May 15. These date restrictions
				do not apply to raccoon or fox field trails. An administrative fee of Fifty
				Dollars ($50) will be required for each permit to cover the Department's costs
				associated with organized field trial activities. Applicants will be required
				to submit the name of the organization, name of the organization's manager,
				driver's license and social security numbers and date of birth of the
				organization's manager, as well as additional addresses, phone numbers, and
				e-mail addresses. Applicants will also be required to provide the physical
				address or GPS coordinates of the location of the field trial, and the date and
				type of the field trial event. Organized fields trials on Wildlife Management
				Areas and Open Permit-Public Land (as defined in rule

				such as national forests lands, will not be approved under field trial permits.
				Notwithstanding the foregoing, organized field trials may be held at the
				Barnett Lawley Field Trial Facility managed by the State Lands Division.
