In GMUs 1 and 10, in addition to the number of licenses established for each GMU, an additional ten elk licenses per GMU, of which five will be made available to eligible landowners as either-sex, private land only transferable vouchers (Hunt Codes:  EE001Y1R and EE010Y1R) valid during the early rifle season (October 1-11).  The remaining five licenses will be made available to the general public as either-sex licenses (Hunt Codes:  EE001Y2R and EE010Y2R) valid GMU-wide during the first regular rifle season.  Ten antlerless licenses floating between the 3rd and 4th regular rifle seasons shall be made available to the general public for each either-sex private land only transferable voucher issued to a participating landowner (Hunt Codes: EF001Y3R, EF001Y4R, EF010Y3R, EF010Y4R).
aa.    A landowner must own a minimum of 640 acres to be eligible to receive a voucher pursuant to this subsection.  State Trust Lands controlled or leased by a landowner shall not count toward the minimum ownership requirements of this subsection.
bb.    To be eligible under this subsection, landowners must have elk on their property from the start of the regular archery season to the end of the 4th regular rifle season.
cc.    For each voucher received pursuant to this subsection a landowner must allow access to the property he controls to each of the five general public either-sex license holders and a minimum of ten general public antlerless license holders.  Access for general public antlerless hunting shall be provided during the 3rd and 4th regular rifle seasons.
dd.    Except as otherwise agreed to in writing by the Division, landowners drawing any voucher pursuant to this subparagraph must provide for equality of access in terms of geographical area and mode of transportation for both private and all general public hunters.  No closure or restriction of land or roads shall apply to general public hunters that do not also apply to private hunters.
4.  A unit managed for maximum hunter opportunity shall also be proposed for inclusion in the Wildlife Landowner Conservation Pilot Program.  Such unit shall be investigated and a program developed for implementation during the 2007 big game hunting season.  The primary objectives of this program shall include relieving pressure on public land by increasing public hunting access on private lands, discouraging harboring big game animals on private land and providing wildlife habitat on private lands through an incentive-based program.
5.  A pilot program, beginning in the 2002 hunting season, will be used to evaluate the issuance of additional applications and licenses.  The pilot will be conducted and evaluated in six select DAU's, as follows, which provide the opportunity to evaluate a range of issues and problems that may arise:
aa.  Elk: 2 DAU's (one quality and one non-quality)
bb.  Deer: 2 DAU's (one east of I-25 and one quality DAU west of I-25)
cc.  Pronghorn: 2 DAU's (one east and one west of I-25)
6.  The pilot will end and be evaluated at the close of the 2004 hunting season.
7.   As part of the pilot program, the Commission may provide additional applications within the 15% license allocation to landowners who provide valuable game habitat or habitat management, allow voluntary public access, or other factors to achieve game management objectives.  The Commission may also provide additional licenses valid on private land or specifically approved intermingled lands only, over and above the 15% allocation. An increase will be recommended by the HEC if game management objectives for the species for which additional licenses are requested are not being met and if additional harvest of male or female animals on private land will facilitate achievement of game management objectives.
8.  Landowners seeking eligibility for additional applications must submit an annual habitat matrix for evaluation by the HEC.   The matrix will be used to evaluate existing valuable habitat, habitat improvements for the benefit of game species, including game species other than those for which the licenses would be issued, assist in determining if and to whom additional applications will be supplied, and who will be eligible for licenses issued beyond the mandated 15%.   The HEC will assist in the development of these habitat matrices, and provide recommendations to the commission or their designee.
9.  In addition to the criteria in #3 and #4 above, the HEC may consider other criteria to achieve game management objectives including, but not limited to, goals for increased tolerance for larger game populations on private land and provision of increased or more diverse hunting opportunity, the granting of conservation or agricultural easements, the provision of hunting access for reduction of the female segment of the population, or reduction in game damage.
10.  Landowners who are granted additional applications will have the option to apply for preference points instead of a voucher.
11.  Vouchers for licenses remaining within the landowner allocations will be distributed to landowners in the same proportion as those issued according to acreage criteria.  Ties will be reconciled using random draw numbers.
c.   Youth preference  - up to 15 percent of the number of the limited doe pronghorn licenses, either-sex and antlerless deer licenses and antlerless elk licenses established for each GMU shall be made available for purchase by qualified youth applicants, Licenses shall be available through application and computer selection from the Division of Wildlife headquarters, 6060 Broadway, Denver, CO 80216.  Licenses not allocated to youth shall be made available to the general public in the remaining drawings.
1.  Any eligible hunter, ages 12-17 is entitled to youth hunt preference for the regular rifle and private land only rifle seasons, for the license types listed above, except that public Ranching for Wildlife; muzzle-loading and Air Force Academy licenses shall not be included in this preference.  The applicant must submit an individual application for the desired, eligible license on forms provided by the Division.  Group applications will not be accepted for youth preference.  Where more than one (1) hunt code choice is shown on the application, both first and second choice hunt codes must be youth preference-eligible hunt codes.

g.   Preference Points and Chances
1.  Preference will be given for qualifying applications for first choice hunt codes only and shall be subject to the following provisions:
aa.  Deer, Elk, Pronghorn, and Bear: one preference point will be awarded to each person who qualifies for and fails to draw a limited license for deer, elk, pronghorn, or bear as a first choice in the regular drawing or who applies using a first choice hunt code established for the purpose of accumulating a preference point only.  Preference points will be used in future drawings for the same species and will accumulate until the applicant obtains a first choice license.  When an applicant obtains a license or fails to apply for a species at least once during a three-year period, all accumulated preference points for that species become void.
bb.	In addition to the $3 application fee, an unsuccessful applicant (except youth as defined by 33-4-117 C.R.S., lifetime license holders and Colorado resident military personnel on active duty outside Colorado), or one who applies using a first choice hunt code established for the purpose of accumulating a preference point only, for deer, elk, pronghorn or bear will be assessed a $25 fee to receive a preference point unless they have purchased one of the following: an annual license (fishing, small game or resident combination small game/fishing license, furbearer) for the year previous to which they are seeking a preference point; any big game license for the previous year or a current draw license for the species for which they are seeking a preference point.  The $25 fee, per species, shall entitle the hunter to preference points for any unsuccessful deer, elk, pronghorn or bear application in that year.
cc.	Rocky Mountain Bighorn Sheep, Mountain Goat, and Moose: One preference point will be awarded to each person who qualifies for and fails to draw a first choice license, until three preference points have been accumulated. Each time an applicant with three (3) points qualifies for and fails to draw a first choice license for bighorn sheep, mountain goat or moose the applicant will be awarded one (1) additional chance in future drawings for that species.  Applicants who have “X” number of chances will have “X” times the probability of drawing a license compared to those with one (1) chance (i.e. those who are using their three (3) points for the first time).  For example, applicants with two (2) chances will have double the probability of drawing compared to applicants for the same hunt code having only one (1) chance.  When an applicant obtains a license or fails to apply for a species at least once during a five-year period, all accumulated preference points and chances become void.
dd.	Applications receiving preference points will be given priority over all applications with fewer points. Group applications will receive preference at the level of the group member with the fewest accumulated preference points, and, where applicable, the fewest accumulated chances, except that group applications will not be successful, regardless of preference point level or number of chances, when there are fewer licenses remaining in the hunt code quota than the number of applicants in the group.
ee.	Any active duty member of the United States Armed Forces stationed at any military facility in Colorado and actively deployed outside of Colorado shall, upon their return to Colorado, be eligible to apply for preference points for any limited license draw that occurred during their absence.
5.  Drawing Processes
a.  Applications using landowner preference and youth preference shall be drawn, in that order, prior to drawing general public applications for the same species.
b.  Except as otherwise provided, applicants who applied properly for deer, elk, or pronghorn in the regular drawing and are unsuccessful will be given an option to: Apply for a leftover drawing. Request a refund. Donate that refund to the Division's nongame or Operation Game Thief fund.  No such donation may be split between the two funds. Request an unlimited bull license.
c.  Unsuccessful applicants for bear, bighorn sheep, mountain goat, or moose will receive a refund check.
d.  Unsuccessful applicants will be notified of their accumulated preference points and chances on their refund check stub, on their leftover drawing letter, or on their carcass tag, whichever is applicable.
e.  Nonresident hunter drawing limitations (first choice applications only)
1.  Nonresidents hunters shall receive no more than 10% of available moose, bighorn sheep and mountain goat licenses for all hunt codes.  In the event there are an insufficient number of nonresident applications for the allocated number of moose, bighorn sheep or mountain goat licenses in any hunt code, the excess nonresident licenses will be issued to residents through the regular drawing process.
2.  Unless there is an insufficient number of resident applications, nonresident hunters shall receive no more than 35% of available deer and elk licenses for hunt codes requiring fewer than five preference points for resident hunters to draw and no more than 20% of available deer and elk licenses for hunt codes requiring five or more preference points for resident hunters to draw.  The number of preference points required to to draw shall be determined by a three-year average ending with the 2005 limited license draw.  These drawing limitations do not apply to the issuance of Private Land Only and Ranching For Wildlife licenses.
6.  Leftover Licenses, Drawing Provisions and Restrictions  
a.	Elk, deer, pronghorn and bear licenses which are not issued through the regular drawing will be issued as "leftover" licenses, (through one "leftover" drawing process if the number of "leftover" licenses is sufficient to justify the administrative cost).
b.	Only persons who apply for a limited license and who are unsuccessful are eligible for the leftover license drawing.  Applicants for the leftover drawing may only apply for the same species that they applied for in the initial drawing.
c.	Any eligible hunter, ages 12 – 17 shall receive preference for leftover deer and elk licenses.

B.  Ranch Entry and Maintenance
1.  Ranches must have a minimum of 12,000 acres of privately owned land in one contiguous unit, except for Mountain Meadows Ranch, which shall be considered grandfathered for this minimum acreage.  Ranches that meet this 12,000-acre minimum requirement may include privately owned non-contiguous parcels in the program if the Director determines that their inclusion will contribute to meeting the performance standards for the ranch.
2.  Ranches must annually provide a minimum of thirty (30) public licenses, in total for all species for which there is a public season established.  Except that ranches located in Game Management Units east of Interstate 25 must offer a minimum of twenty (20) public licenses in total for all species if no female licenses for deer, elk, or pronghorn are allocated to the ranch.
3.  New ranches entering the program shall be placed in Tier category C for their probationary contract period.  During their probationary contract period, each ranch’s plan and performance along with any subsequently developed plan shall be used to determine Tier category placement for any future contract period.
4.  Ranches must develop a Ranching For Wildlife Management Plan that includes goals, objectives, and strategies for achieving such goals and objectives for wildlife habitat management, species management, and public hunting management.  The Management Plan shall identify the Tier category in which the ranch seeks to be placed and what specific actions the ranch will take to achieve the appropriate Tier placement criteria.  The Management Plan must be approved by the Division prior to execution of a Cooperative Agreement for Ranching For Wildlife.
5.  Ranches may not charge public hunters an access fee for hunting.
6.  Except as agreed to in writing by the Division when necessary to meet the ranch performance standards or as mutually agreed and contained in the Management Plan, ranches must provide for equality of access in terms of geographical area and mode of transportation for both public and private hunters.  No closure or restriction of land or roads shall apply to public hunters that do not also apply to private hunters.

1.  There is an established season in which such licenses would be valid in the Game Management Unit (GMU) in which the ranch is located.
2.  Such licenses shall not be used concurrently with any Ranching For Wildlife season, or at any other time when the Division determines that it would result in elk, deer, pronghorn, bighorn sheep, moose, or black bear not being available to Ranching For Wildlife public hunters.
3.  The Division determines that any resulting harvest achieved will contribute to achieving DAU management objectives.
E.  License Allocation
1.  A maximum of 1,000 licenses of each species and sex for deer, elk, and pronghorn, a maximum of 30 black bear licenses, a maximum of 20 licenses of each sex for bighorn sheep, and a maximum of 50 licenses of each sex for moose may be allocated to each ranch annually, and subsequently distributed to the public and private share according to the distribution table established in this regulation.
2.  Division staff recommendations regarding license allocations for each ranch shall be forwarded to and approved by the Director based upon Data Analysis Unit harvest objectives, relative ranch land base and occupied habitat for each species on the ranch to that of the Data Analysis Unit, hunter crowding, enhancement of hunter harvest, and relative densities of the species on the ranch.
3.  Substitution of licenses of one species or sex for licenses of another species or sex shall not be permitted.
4.  For purposes of determining distribution of licenses allocated to each ranch, either sex licenses will be treated as antlered licenses for deer and elk and buck licenses for pronghorn.

a.  Applications for private hunter licenses stamped with the ranch name and season dates shall be available to the landowner for distribution.
b.  Public hunter licenses shall be available through application and selection from the Division during the annual limited license drawing process, except as provided in this regulation.
c.  Leftover Ranching For Wildlife Licenses:  Ranching For Wildlife licenses which are not issued through the regular drawing will be issued as “leftover”  licenses, only through the “leftover”  drawing process, rather than through the over-the-counter leftover license process.
2.  Forbes Trinchera Ranch - One hundred percent (100%) of the limited antlered public licenses and eighty percent (80%) of the limited antlerless public licenses shall be available through the Division’s annual limited license drawing process. Twenty percent (20%) of the limited public antlerless licenses will be allocated by public drawing at 1:00 p.m. on the second Wednesday in August, annually, at the San Luis Community Center, San Luis, CO.  Applications will be accepted between 9:00 am and noon, on the second Wednesday in August, annually.
H.  Special Restrictions

Unless otherwise provided in these Ranching for Wildlife regulations all hunters must comply with other applicable regulations, including, but not limited to, manner of take (except that private hunters may use any legal weapon during private seasons), hunting hours, application requirements and deadlines, bag limits, season participation, mandatory checks, OHV restrictions, and other generally applicable regulations for big game hunting.
2.  A copy of the mutually agreed upon ranch rules will be provided to all public hunters prior to their hunting season.  All public hunters will be required to sign a statement acknowledging that they have read, understand, and agree to comply with all ranch rules, before the hunter is allowed access to the ranch.
a.  Compliance with ranch rules is a specific condition of the Ranching For Wildlife public licenses and subsequent access to the ranch.  In addition to criminal penalties, non-compliance with ranch rules constitutes grounds for suspension and revocation of the license and/or being prohibited from further participation in hunting on the ranch, and/or in the Ranching For Wildlife program as a public hunter.
b.  Final determination on any legal action taken towards hunters found in non-compliance with ranch rules shall be made solely by officers of the Division.  This includes any citation that may be issued for non-compliance with the provisions of a license, or directing a hunter to leave a ranch.  Ranch personnel may not direct a hunter to leave a ranch without specific authorization of a Division officer.

ARTICLE XII  -  SPECIAL HUNTING SEASONS/LICENSES FOR BIG GAME
#271    BIG GAME ANIMALS CAUSING DAMAGE AND BIG GAME POPULATIONS OVER OBJECTIVE
A.  Special Population Management Seasons for Big Game Ungulates
1.   The Director shall have the authority to establish special management seasons for antlerless or female big game ungulates in specific game management units or portions thereof which significantly exceed the population objective, when the anticipated harvest from the current year’s archery, muzzle-loading and regular rifle seasons did not occur.  Provided further that the Director shall have the authority to establish these hunts between November 16 and February 28, to specify a time period for each of these hunts but not to exceed ten days each, and shall authorize hunters to use designated unfilled big game licenses for these hunts and units.
2.   The Director shall have the authority to allocate antlerless deer and/or elk licenses on existing Ranching for Wildlife properties located in game management units where deer or elk populations significantly exceed the population objective.  These licenses shall be in addition to the number of licenses allocated to each ranch pursuant to the Cooperative Agreement established in #210(A)(2).  The additional allocation and use of the antlerless licenses provided for in this section shall be in the same proportion, by species (not sex), as established in the ranch’s respective Cooperative Agreement and subject to the following provisions:
a.  No ranch shall be required to accept any additional antlerless licenses.
b.  The public allocation of such additional antlerless licenses shall only be offered to hunters who have successfully drawn antlered, either-sex or antlerless licenses for the same species on the ranch.  Public hunters who choose to purchase one additional antlerless license from the Division shall be required to use the additional license during the season established for the license for which they drew.  No more than one additional antlerless license will be available to any public hunter.
B.  Special Game Damage Seasons for Big Game Ungulates
1.   The Director shall have the authority to establish special hunting seasons for big game ungulates, between August 15 and February 28, when necessary to control damage to property.   Seasons shall be for the taking of antlerless or female animals unless the Director has determined that the taking of antlered animals is necessary in order to alleviate the damage.
a.  Game damage hunts are limited to a maximum of 50 licenses per species per Game Management Unit or 30 percent of the antlerless, either-sex, or doe licenses issued for the DAU (whichever is greater), unless a distribution management plan establishing a different percentage has been approved by the Wildlife Commission or additional permits are approved by the director or his designee.
b.  On private lands and Russell Lakes, Rio Grande and Higel State Wildlife Areas, the Area Wildlife Manager (AWM) is authorized to conduct these seasons based upon the following criteria:
1.  The AWM finds that such a season would be consistent with the distribution management plan approved by the Wildlife Commission.
2.  When there is no approved distribution management plan, the AWM finds that a season will reduce or eliminate damage for which the Division is liable, and that holding a season would be desirable considering
aa.  The species and number of animals involved.
bb.  The number of animals that would have to be removed to reduce or eliminate damage.
cc.  The location of the damage problem.
dd.  The type and extent of damage.
ee.  The time of year and its relationship to the life history of the animals.
ff.  The length of time such damage will continue without big game removal.
gg.  Management closures, hunting seasons and other public use.
hh.  The effect on population objectives for the GMU and DAU
ii.  Whether landowner operations (e.g., harvesting) or critical wildlife biological activities (e.g., fawning) would be interrupted.
jj.  Safety risks.
kk.  Any other pertinent factors.
3.  The Area Wildlife Manager shall provide the landowner with special application forms for distribution to individuals of their choice.   Participants shall submit the completed application form with payment to the Division of Wildlife office indicated on the application.
4.  In the event the landowner cannot secure enough people to effect an adequate harvest the Division can assist in locating individuals.
c.   The Division shall
1.  Verify that damage or conflicts are occurring or can reasonably be anticipated to occur.
2.  Designate what area shall be open to hunting.
3.  Determine the manner of hunting that will be permitted.
4.  Determine the number of hunters allowed to hunt in each designated area.
d.  Hunting will be done under the direction of a District Wildlife Manager, following approval by the owner of land where such damage is occurring.
e.  Hunters shall hunt in designated areas and on the dates indicated on the license.
1.  A map or a written description of the designated area open to hunting (which would include, but would not be limited to landowner(s) name, game management unit, township, range and section(s) and/or identification of landmarks such as roads, rivers, or fence lines which coincide with boundaries), will be provided to each licensed hunter by the Division.
f.  Any person who purchases a license for a game damage season shall be required to complete a Division harvest survey form and return it to the Area office that is nearest the location of the hunt no later than 5 days after the season ends.
C.  Special Game Damage Licenses for Bear and Mountain Lion
1.   The Director shall have the authority to establish special hunting licenses for mountain lion and bear, which allow for take in excess of the otherwise applicable limited license numbers or quotas, when necessary to control damage to private property.
a.  AWMs are authorized to issue these bear and mountain lion licenses to address specific animals determined after an investigation to be causing damage to private property.
1.  Bear or mountain lion licenses above the established limited license numbers or quota for the area may be issued only where necessary to take specific animals determined after an investigation to be causing damage to private property.
2.  Bear hunting authorized under this provision will be conducted between September 2 and the end of the fourth regular rifle season annually.
3.  Mountain lion hunting authorized under this provision will be conducted during established lion seasons.
4.  Licenses will be issued only if licenses are not otherwise available for purchase under standard license distribution methods or where mountain lion quotas have been reached in the area.
5.  License will be restricted by manner of take, period of time within the dates specified above, and location within the GMU(s) or DAU(s) in question as necessary to ensure the offending animal is appropriately targeted.
6.  Hunting will be conducted under the direction of a District Wildlife Manager.
b.  Any person who purchases a license shall be required to complete a Division harvest survey form and return it to the Area office that is nearest the location of the hunt no later than 5 days after the end of the hunting period authorized by the license.
c.  Bear and mountain lion taken pursuant to a license issued under this provision shall not be counted against the annual bag and possession limit for the species in question.
D.  Special Hunting Season In Game Management Unit 20 For Cow Elk Normally Not Available For Harvest During Regular Or Late Big Game Seasons:
1.  Season dates, license types, permit numbers will be established by the Director or his designee.
2.  The Division will designate the area open to hunting, manner of take, and season dates which are necessary to achieve its population management objective for this population of elk.  Hunting shall occur only during the designated time periods indicated on the hunter's license and only in those areas specifically designated on the map provided by the Division.  Special Unit 20 cow elk hunts shall be established based on the following criteria:  (a) the hunt does not fall within the criteria established for game damage hunts; (b) snow ground cover and/or other conditions favor are expected to favor successful hunting; (c) elk must be available to hunters in portions of Unit 20 which are open to hunter access; and (d) no special season will be created under this regulation which would extend beyond February 15th.
3.  Eligible hunters will be selected in the following priority: a) from the list of hunters who applied for a Unit 20 limited elk license and were unsuccessful; and b) from a new list of hunters established by the Division of Wildlife Northeast Regional office pursuant to notice in local newspapers.  Such list will be established on a first-come, first-served basis.
4.  Individuals who participate in this special hunt may also participate in any other season for elk if otherwise eligible to do so.
#272  BIG GAME DISEASE/ANIMAL HEALTH SEASONS
1.  Special Hunting Seasons for Disease Management in Big Game
a.  The Director shall have the authority to establish special hunting seasons for big game, when hunting harvest has not been adequate to reduce the incidence of disease, to reduce emigration of infected animals, or to otherwise control expansion of the disease.
1.   No more than 200 licenses per species shall be issued annually per Game Management Unit (GMU) unless authorized by the Director
2.   Seasons shall be for the taking of antlerless or female animals unless the Director has authorized the issuance of male (antlered) licenses.  No more than 10% of the licenses shall be issued for male (antlered) animals unless authorized by the Director.
3.  Licenses will be valid only in the unit(s) specified on the license. Licenses may be restricted to specific properties or areas as determined by the Area Wildlife Manager.
4.  License fees may be reduced when authorized by the Director, when necessary to ensure sufficient hunter participation, provided that no license is to be sold for less than $5.00.  License fees shall be set to ensure recovery of the cost of the retail and system agent commissions.
5.  Multiple carcass tags may be issued with each license, as authorized by the Director.  Provided further that the payment of separate license fees shall be required if licenses for more than one species are to be sold.
6.  Any licensee who takes deer or elk during any such season for the purpose of Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) management shall submit the head from all animals taken when required to do so as a condition of the license, to the testing site specified at the time the license is issued, within 5 days after harvest.   Hunters must complete the special survey tag available at any head collection site and attach it to the animal’s head.  Antlers and capes from harvested deer may be removed by hunters before submitting heads for sampling.
