Hearing Location(s): Moses Lake Civic Center, 401 South Balsam, Moses Lake, WA 98837, on March 7-8, 2014, at 8:30 a.m.

Date of Intended Adoption: On or after April 11, 2014.

Submit Written Comments to: Wildlife Program Commission Meeting Public Comments, 600 Capitol Way North, Olympia, WA 98501-1091, [e-mail], fax [phone], by February 14, 2014.

Assistance for Persons with Disabilities: Contact Tami Lininger by February 21, 2014, TTY [phone] or [phone].

Purpose of the Proposal and Its Anticipated Effects, Including Any Changes in Existing Rules: Amendment to WAC 220-55-040 Recreational license tag, permit and stamp refund and exchanges; and new section WAC 220-55-172 Reduced rate combo deer hunting license and 220-55-174 Reduced rate combo elk hunting license.

Purpose of the proposal and its anticipated effects, including any changes in existing rules: The purpose of this proposal is to clarify and expand the rationale for refunding, exchanging, and replacing licenses and tags. In addition, we have received several complaints regarding the price of second deer and elk licenses. This proposal creates discounts for combination licenses and tags.

Reasons supporting proposal: This proposal will address the complaints about the cost of second deer and elk license and improve the department's administration of permits and tags and facilitate much improved collection of harvest data.

Amendment to WAC 232-12-047 Unlawful methods for hunting, 232-12-051 Muzzleloading firearms, 232-12-054 Hunters with disabilities and 232-12-828 Hunting of game birds and animals by persons with a disability; and new section WAC 232-12-819 Special use permits and 232-12-825 Definition of a person with a disability.

Purpose of the proposal and its anticipated effects, including any changes in existing rules: Several rules (WAC 232-12-047, 232-12-051, and 232-12-054) are recommended to be amended to delete exceptions for hunters with disabilities from equipment regulations. Exceptions instead will be combined in a new rule (WAC 232-12-819) and by amendment to an existing rule (WAC 232-12-828). We are recommending that the department be allowed to issue special use permits to provide reasonable accommodations for persons with a disability. The department also recommends a change to the definition of a hunter with a disability.

Reasons supporting proposal: In the past, any time the department wanted to change the types of equipment necessary for a disabled hunter to participate in an agency hunting program, we needed to have a rule changed to accommodate the request. These changes will allow the department to issue special use permits as needed to make those accommodations.

In addition, this change will address a petition to the commission to amend rules to allow scopes on crossbows used by hunters with disabilities and a complaint filed with the Department of Interior. The essence of the complaint was similar to the petition. Nearly all crossbows available on the market today include scopes and modifying them required relatively expensive conversion kits which invalidated the warrantee [warranty]. Therefore the claim was that the department was discriminating by creating an economic hardship in not allowing hunters with disabilities to use a crossbow equipped with a scope.

WAC 232-12-242 Hunting restrictions.

Purpose of the proposal and its anticipated effects, including any changes in existing rules: Reinstate restrictions on night hunting and hound hunting during deer and elk seasons which were inadvertently deleted from the small game seasons last year but not placed in a different section as planned.

Reference to WAC 232-28-285 is removed as it is no longer in effect and reference to WAC 232-12-243 is replaced with reference to RCW 77-15-245 [77.15.245] which is the statute authorizing public safety cougar removals.

Reasons supporting proposal: This rule is important in mitigating conflicts and the potential for unlawful use of dogs to pursue deer and elk and night hunting.

WAC 232-28-248 Special closures and firearm restriction areas.

Purpose of the proposal and its anticipated effects, including any changes in existing rules: The purpose of the proposal is to adjust the boundary of the Columbia River Restricted Hunting Area hunting closure to better reflect conditions on the ground and also to alleviate trespass on restricted federal lands. The proposal also provides for an exception to allow special permit hunting on the Parker Lake Restricted Hunting Area. In addition the proposal provides for an exception to the modern firearm restriction in the Kittitas firearm restriction area.

Reasons supporting proposal: Special closures and firearm restriction areas allow the fish and wildlife commission to restrict or close hunting activity in certain areas to optimize safety, discourage trespass on restricted lands, and protect sensitive species.

WAC 232-28-273 2012-2014 Moose seasons and permit quotas.

Purpose of the proposal and its anticipated effects, including any changes in existing rules: Increase the current temporal, geographic, and gender scope of the master hunter permits in Region 1. Current rules limit master hunts permits for moose (10) to antlerless animals only, a season of Dec. 1 through the following March 1, and GMUs 124, 127, and portions of 130 within Spokane County. The revision would allow for master hunt permits for any moose identified by Washington department of fish and wildlife (WDFW) as requiring removal, for a season extending from Aug. 1 through the following March 1, and extend to area to include all of GMUs 124, 127, 130, 133, 136, 139, and 142.

Additionally, new, experimental archery-only and muzzleloader-only hunts are proposed in the Parker Lake area (within GMU 117) which had previously been closed due to potential conflicts with United States Air Force (USAF) survival school. This hunt is being coordinated with USAF.

Reasons supporting proposal: Master hunter permits for moose are intended to provide hunter opportunity where moose are causing damage or are a threat to human safety (typically in or near urban and suburban settings), and these cannot be otherwise resolved. Current restrictions on these permits limit the effectiveness of implementing this objective. This revision will allow for needed flexibility in removing problem moose.

The experimental archery-only and muzzleloader permit hunts are being offered to provide additional hunter opportunity in any area where moose populations can absorb additional harvest.

WAC 232-28-283 2012-2014 Big game and wild turkey auction, raffle, and special incentive permits.

Purpose of the proposal and its anticipated effects, including any changes in existing rules: Add to (18) Rocky Mountain Bighorn Sheep Raffle permit GMU 172, and remove GMU 181.

Reasons supporting proposal: Provide hunter opportunity where herd increase has allowed for increase[d] harvest, while reducing permit levels where mortality must be limited.

WAC 232-28-296 Landowner hunting permits.

Purpose of the proposal and its anticipated effects, including any changes in existing rules: This proposal modifies hunt dates and permit levels on properties enrolled in WDFW's landowner hunting permit (LHP) program for the 2014 hunting season. These sites offer special hunting opportunities to the public through WDFW's special permit drawings, raffles, or selection by the landowner.

Reasons supporting proposal: Several years ago, the fish and wildlife commission developed a policy to expand the private lands available to the general public for hunting. One of the programs that was authorized is the LHP program. This program encourages landowners to provide opportunity to the general hunter in exchange for customized hunting seasons and the ability to generate funding to offset the cost of providing public access.

WAC 232-28-337 Elk area descriptions.

Purpose of the proposal and its anticipated effects, including any changes in existing rules: The purpose of the proposal is [to] modify the boundary of an existing Elk Area in Region 5 to better address wildlife conflict through special permit elk hunting. The proposal also creates an Elk Area in Region 1 to facilitate elk special permit hunting on newly acquired wildlife area lands.

Reasons supporting proposal: Elk areas allow the commission to distribute hunters more favorably during quality hunts. The proposed language also helps delineate when state authorized elk hunting is and is not allowed at a smaller scale within a GMU. Elk areas help direct hunters when a scale smaller than the GMU is needed. Elk areas also help staff address wildlife conflict problems at a smaller scale than the GMU when needed.

WAC 232-28-342 2012-13, 2013-14, and 2014-15 Small game seasons.

Purpose of the proposal and its anticipated effects, including any changes in existing rules: Changes proposed increase the possession limit to three times the daily bag for mourning dove (including falconry), band-tailed pigeon, and September Canada goose (except for the two day eastern Washington September season). Other changes include shifting season eastern Washington September goose season dates to occur on weekend days, and increasing the bag limit for the Pacific County September Canada goose season.

Reasons supporting proposal: The proposed changes will standardize possession limits among all migratory bird seasons and allow increase[d] recreational opportunity on resident Canada geese, while conserving these populations and providing agricultural damage control.

WAC 232-28-357 2012-2014 Deer general seasons and definitions.

Purpose of the proposal and its anticipated effects, including any changes in existing rules: The purpose of this proposal is to retain general season deer hunting opportunity. The purpose is also to balance the hunting opportunity between user groups. In addition the purpose is to increase opportunity when deer populations allow, and reduce the opportunity when declining deer numbers warrant a change.

Reasons supporting proposal: This proposal provides for recreational deer hunting opportunity and protects deer from overharvest. The proposal would maintain sustainable general deer hunting season opportunities for 2014. The proposal also helps address deer agricultural damage problems and provides for deer population control when needed.

WAC 232-28-358 2012-2014 Elk general seasons and definitions.

Purpose of the proposal and its anticipated effects, including any changes in existing rules: The purpose of this proposal is to retain general season elk hunting opportunity for 2014.

The proposal helps address elk agricultural damage problems and provides for elk population control when needed.

WAC 232-28-359 2014 Deer special permits.

Purpose of the proposal and its anticipated effects, including any changes in existing rules: The purpose of this proposal is to retain special permit deer hunting opportunity for 2014. The purpose is also to balance the hunting opportunity between user groups and increase hunting opportunity when deer populations allow. In addition the proposal reduces the deer hunting opportunity when declining deer numbers warrant a change.

Reasons supporting proposal: This proposal provides for recreational deer hunting opportunity and protects deer from overharvest. The proposal would maintain sustainable deer special permit hunting season opportunities for 2014. The proposal also helps address deer agricultural damage problems and provides for deer population control when needed.

WAC 232-28-360 2014 Elk special permits.

WAC 232-28-358 2012-2014 Elk general seasons and definitions.

It is unlawful to fail to comply with bag, possession, and season limits described below. A violation of this section is punishable under RCW 77.15.410, Unlawful hunting of big game-Penalty.

Bag Limit: One (1) elk per hunter during the license year, except where otherwise permitted by department rule. Any combination of seasons, tags, and permits set by the department will not exceed a maximum of two (2) elk per hunter during the license year.

Hunting Method: Elk hunters must select only one of the hunting methods: Modern firearm, archery, or muzzleloader.

Elk Tag Areas: Elk hunters must choose either Eastern or Western Washington to hunt in and buy the appropriate tag for that area.

Any Bull Elk Seasons: Open only to the taking of elk with visible antlers; bull calves are illegal.

Antler Point: To qualify as an antler point, the point must be at least one inch long, measured on the longest side.

Branch: A branch is defined as any projection off the main antler beam that is at least one inch long, measured on the longest side, and longer than it is wide.

Spike Bull Antler Restrictions: Bull elk taken in spike-only game management units (GMUs) must have at least one antler with no branches originating more than 4 inches above where the antler attaches to the skull.

Spike-only GMUs: 145-154, 162-186, 249, and 336-368.

True Spike - Bull Antler Restrictions: Neither antler of bull elk taken in GMUs 251, and 328-335 can have branching originating more than 4 inches above where the antlers attach to the skull. Under the true-spike restriction, taking an elk that has two points on one side or antler points within one inch of the definitions regarding length of point, or point of origination, is an infraction under RCW 77.15.160. All other types of violations of the true-spike restriction are subject to current penalties and assessments under RCW 77.15.410 and 77.15.420.

True-spike GMUs: 251, 328-335.
