Hi Mark,

No. Each district has it's own policies. USFS will have it's own
policies. I imagine, with the BLM, these new GUIDELINES will be
included in there Land Use Plans for various areas of
responsibilities.

Cheers!

Jim

The attached message has a link to the current, nationally implimented, Federal regulations sent to me by Dan Erbes, Nevada Lands Manager, Carson City, Nevada - BLM.

I was told that if you find a thirty pound individual, or individuals, just make sure you have three people involved. Permits are available for scientific collection and commercial activities. Amendments have already been discussed, but not approved, to take care of the obvious unworkability of some aspects of the commercial permit regs, especailly the fee based on the estimated value of the land to be hunted.
