OAR 635-075-0024
Issuing Leftover Limited Landowner Hunting Preference Tags
(1)
If landowner preference tags remain from the controlled hunts described in 635-075-0020 (Landowner Hunting Preference Tags in Special Seasons)(1)(b) and 635-075-0022 (Landowner Hunting Preference Tags for Mule Deer)(3)(a) after the game mammal controlled hunt drawing, the Department will issue remaining tags to qualified landowners in the following manner:(a)
The tags shall be issued on a first-come, first-served basis.(b)
The Department will set the time, date, and any constraints (i.e., online or through License Agents only) for the sale of the tags.(c)
Only landowners who still have tags available for allocation on their property as set forth in 635-075-0005 (Registration, Application and Tag Issuance Procedures and Limits for All Controlled Hunts) (8) may apply for and receive tags remaining in the quota. Such a tag may be for the landowner or for someone other than the landowner listed on their tag distribution form.(d)
Limited landowner tags from the quota are not an additional hunting opportunity for the landowner or hunter.(A)
If the hunter has a general elk season or 200 Series controlled hunt tag, they are not eligible to receive a tag for a hunt described in 635-075-0020 (Landowner Hunting Preference Tags in Special Seasons)(1)(b) with limited landowner elk tags.(B)
If the hunter has a general deer season or 100 Series controlled hunt tag, they are not eligible to receive a tag for a hunt described in 635-075-0022 (Landowner Hunting Preference Tags for Mule Deer)(3)(a) with limited landowner deer tags.(2)
For the purposes of OAR 635-075-0020 (Landowner Hunting Preference Tags in Special Seasons)(2) and 635-075-0022 (Landowner Hunting Preference Tags for Mule Deer)(3), “qualified landowner” is a landowner who registered their land through the landowner preference program for the Wildlife Management Unit which includes the controlled hunt and who has a current tag distribution form filed with the Department.(3)
A hunter who received a tag of his or her choice through the original game mammal controlled hunt drawing process may exchange that tag for a remaining tag in the first-come, first-served process while tags remain available. Tag purchases and exchanges may be obtained only through ODFW Salem Headquarters and must be made before the start of the seasons for which the tags are issued. Tag exchange fees as provided in OAR 635-010-0019 (License and Tag Exchanges) apply. The tag being exchanged shall not be reissued.
