DEC Invites Initial Feedback on Several Wildlife Regulations Being Considered
Continuing efforts to keep hunters and the public informed about possible
wildlife regulation changes, DEC has posted several ideas that are under
consideration for 2017.
Prior to initiating a formal rulemaking process, DEC routinely seeks public
input regarding concerns or interest in potential changes to regulations. In
many situations, DEC uses scientific surveys to gather public opinion about
potential rule changes. In other cases, DEC communicates informally through
e-mails, letters, or meetings in response to ideas and suggestions. In all
situations, it is helpful to obtain informal feedback to gauge public interest
and support, and to learn of any concerns that may exist, before the formal
rulemaking process is initiated.
DEC invites informal feedback regarding several issues: (1) prohibiting feeding
wild white-tailed deer, (2) issuing permits for 4-Poster TickicideTM and
4-PosterTM deer treatment devices, (3) strengthening measures to protect New
York deer from Chronic Wasting Disease, (4) eliminating the special permit for
hunting and trapping bobcats in the Harvest Expansion Area, and (5) closing the
season for take of diamondback terrapin.
These ideas are not formal proposals at this time, just options being
considered as potential changes for 2017. Please see

to provide feedback.
Thank you in advance for taking the time to review and provide comment!
