Section 502.4298 - Computerized system of drawing; alternate list; procedure to refill quota

Universal Citation: NV Admin Code 502.4298

Current through September 16, 2024

1. The Silver State Tag Drawing will occur before the initial drawing for big game tags. The Department shall award tags from the Silver State Tag Drawing through a random order of selection conducted pursuant to a computerized system of drawing. The selection must begin with a number established by the hours, minutes, seconds and hundredths of a second set forth on the computer's clock immediately before commencing the drawing.

2. The Department shall cause the computer to generate an alternate list, categorized by species, after the initial selection of tag recipients in the Silver State Tag Drawing. The alternate list must consist solely of each applicant who indicated a desire to be placed on an alternate list pursuant to subsection 1 of NAC 502.4292.

3. If the return of tags for a refund, pursuant to subsection 2 of NAC 502.422, reduces the number of tags awarded for the Silver State Tag Drawing to less than the quota for the hunt for a species, the Department shall refill the quota by awarding tags to applicants on the alternate list, unless there are fewer than 14 business days remaining until the opening day for that hunt.

4. Except as otherwise provided in subsection 5, in awarding tags from an alternate list for a hunt, the Department shall select the eligible applicant appearing on the list who:

(a) Has not received a tag in the initial drawing for big game tags or the Partnership in Wildlife Drawing for that species or subspecies for that year;

(b) Has the drawing number with the highest priority for that species or subspecies; and

(c) Indicated on his or her application the desire to compete for that species or subspecies in the Silver State Tag Drawing.

5. If the Department is unable to collect any fee that is required from the Silver State Tag Drawing because the method of payment is rejected during the processing of those fees, the Department shall, if more than 14 business days remain until the opening day for the hunt, select an eligible applicant from the alternate list for the hunt and season who:

(a) Has the drawing number with the highest priority; and

(b) Indicated on his or her application for the initial drawing for big game tags the desire to compete for that species in the Silver State Tag Drawing.

6. The Department shall maintain a record of each applicant selected from an alternate list pursuant to this section.
