Elk general hunting seasons may be adjusted annually in response to elk population changes and damage complaints. This rule sets general elk hunting season opportunities for 2006-2008, adjusts general seasons for 2006 in response to elk population changes and damage complaints, provides for recreational harvest of elk, helps reduce agricultural damage, and provides for population control of elk where needed.

     Reasons Supporting Proposal: Provides recreational, elk hunting opportunity and protects elk from overharvest. Addresses elk-caused agricultural damage problems.

     Statutory Authority for Adoption: RCW 77.12.047.

     Statute Being Implemented: RCW 77.12.047.

     Rule is not necessitated by federal law, federal or state court decision.

     Name of Proponent: Washington fish and wildlife commission, governmental.

     Name of Agency Personnel Responsible for Drafting and Implementation: Dave Brittell, Natural Resources Building, Olympia, (360) 902-2504; and Enforcement: Bruce Bjork, Natural Resources Building, Olympia, (360) 902-2932.

     No small business economic impact statement has been prepared under chapter 19.85 RCW. These rules regulate recreational hunters and do not directly regulate small business.

     A cost-benefit analysis is not required under RCW 34.05.328. Not hydraulics rules.
