This exempt regulation sets the open season, bag limits and permits for deer. Three changes are proposed for the 2005-2006 season. First, the extended firearms season is proposed for 8 days. Second, individuals must have an antlered permit prior to purchasing an antlerless whitetailed deer permit or game tag. Third, deer taken in Unit 16 are added to the list of units that must be registered at a check station. PASSED AS PRESENTED, VOTE 6-1.

The proposed new regulation is not anticipated to have any appreciable economic impact on the department, other agencies, or the public.
