NOTICE OF REVIEW AND STATEMENT OF CONTINUATION
Concise explanation of the particular statutory provisions under which the rule is enacted and how these provisions authorize or require the rule:
Section 23-20-12 authorizes the Wildlife Board to adopt rules specifying terms and conditions whereby an individual, who is validly licensed to hunt may be authorized to hunt from a vehicle. Section 23-19-36 allows a resident who is blind, paraplegic, or permanently disabled to receive a license to fish upon satisfactory proof to the Division of Wildlife Resources. This rule specifies terms, conditions and the process for providing proof of a disability, respectively.
Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:
No written comments supporting or opposing Rule R657-12 were received since September 2012, when the rule was last reviewed.
Reasoned justification for continuation of the rule, including reasons why the agency disagrees with comments in opposition to the rule, if any:
The standards and procedures adopted in Rule R657-12 have worked well in providing fairness to all concerned individuals. The provisions of this rule have provided an effective and efficient process for persons to obtain a certificate of registration for taking wildlife from a vehicle and persons to obtain a fishing license as authorized under Subsection 23-19-36(1). Continuation of this rule is necessary for continued success of the program.
