House Bill No. 328 Summary

• Revises the method for calculating individual outfitter tag allocations in controlled hunts by requiring use of the highest year within the last two years of outfitted elk and deer tag use, rather than applying the previous method.

• Specifies that the hunt or hunts selected for comparison must most closely match the conditions for the allocated tag being designated to determine the individual outfitter's base allocation number.

• Changes the board's authority regarding rule implementation from mandatory ("shall") to discretionary ("may") by allowing the board to promulgate all necessary rules to implement the provisions.

• Maintains the existing provision that tag allocation numbers will be recomputed at the next big game season setting.
