Title 41 - Department of Game, Fish And Parks
Article 41:06 - Hunting seasons and methods
Chapter 41:06:46 - Depredation permits
Section 41:06:46:11 - Eligibility for elk depredation permits and future elk hunting licenses

Any person regardless of being issued an elk license in the first drawing of an elk hunting season within the previous nine years is eligible to apply for an elk depredation permit. However, any person who holds an elk hunting license from the current elk drawing, is not eligible to apply in the lottery drawing for an elk depredation permit. Issuance of an elk depredation permit under this depredation hunt does not affect future eligibility for elk licenses available in any elk hunting season or preference points.
