NEW PERMIT, GAME TAG QUESTIONS ANSWERED
Regarding permits and licenses issued at vendors with automated
licensing machines, the answer is simple. Instead of a separate permit or
license for each purchase, the customer will receive a printed document
that lists all the privileges he or she has purchased, eliminating the
need to carry multiple pieces of paper for various types of hunting,
fishing, or even park use. This document will be signed at the time of
purchase and kept throughout the season.
If a deer or turkey permit or game tag is part of the purchase, a
tear-off carcass tag will be attached to the document. If multiple permits
or tags are issued, multiple tear-off carcass tags will also be attached
to the document. When a deer or turkey is taken, the carcass tag must be
torn off, signed and dated, and tied to the animal's leg through two
pre-punched holes in the tag.
Permits and tags purchased through the internet on home computers will be
printed on personal printers and will also include carcass tags. These
tags will be torn off when an animal is taken, signed and dated, placed in
a plastic food bag, and tied to the animal's leg.
In addition, for this year only, deer permits acquired through drawings
will include a carcass tag that must be signed, dated, and attached in the
same manner as previous years. Next year, however, draw permits will be
the same as permits issued under this year's automated licensing system,
even though they will still be issued through a drawing.
Photocopying of permits is illegal. If a permit is lost, a duplicate
may be purchased for $12.15 from KDWP offices, any license vendor, or
online.
