Section 2 CCR 406-16-1680 - Reasonable Accommodations
A. The Director shall have the authority to grant variances from the regulations adopted by the Parks and Wildlife Commission, including but not limited to manner of take and access accommodations, for the sole purpose of providing reasonable accommodations to persons with disabilities.
B. Application for such accommodations must be made on a form available from and submitted to the Division at least 30 days prior to the requested effective date.
C. Such applications will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis and supporting documentation may be required. If an accommodation is authorized, the applicant will be provided with a special permit listing the accommodation and any conditions of its use.
1. When shooting from a motor vehicle is authorized, the permittee is authorized to discharge a firearm or release an arrow from a stationary motor vehicle only after all forward motion has ceased and the motor has been turned off or is incapable of forward motion. No shooting may be done from a public road.
D. Permits are free of charge, and valid for the time period designated on the permit. Permits shall be presented for inspection upon request by an officer of the Division.
E. Hunters with permits must be accompanied by another person when necessary to ensure that the wildlife taken is retrieved and properly prepared for human consumption. Such person may dispatch wounded wildlife when so authorized as a condition of the permit.
F. Persons provided with any accommodation under this regulation shall comply with all other applicable laws and regulations. Permits allow variances only from regulations specifically addressed and only in the manner and under the circumstances set forth therein.
G. A service animal is defined as any dog that is individually trained to do work or perform tasks for the benefit of an individual with a disability including a physical, sensory, psychiatric, intellectual, or other mental disability. Other species of animals, whether wild or domestic, trained or untrained, are not service animals for the purposes of this definition. The work or tasks performed by a service animal must be directly related to the handler's disability. The crime deterrent effects of an animal's presence and the provisions of emotional support, well-being, comfort, or companionship do not constitute work or tasks for the purposes of this definition.
