According to a recent release by
O D f W the department has proposed
that several new eastern Oregon areas
be added to the list o f controlled hig
ganK- hunts tor |U**I. alleging that con
tinued habitat loss and new road construction necessitate the action
l ight new controlled hunt units proposed for mule deer in
reflect
a significant restriction of hunimg opportunity in many popular eastern
Oregon areas, the department said Those new units would include I 'kiah
2( A to tags. I Mi Emily. 400 tags. W Mi Emily. ’ i A) lags. Chesnim
nus. 4(AI tags. Sumpter. I .(AS) tags. W Beulah. 2.000 tags. Interstate.
2. ( AS) tags and W arner. 2.2(A) tags The department admitted that while
limiting the numbers o f hunters in a given area is not a favored manage
tiK-nt strategv poor tawn survival and the increasing vulnerability o f bucks
leaves biologists with little choice but to recommend additional limitations
In most traditional limited entry buck deer areas, the department is pro
[losing an increase in available tag numbers tn*m I9HU. .md a 12 cLiv season
beginning September 29
Six new Rocky Ml bull elk hunt units have been proposed tor limited

other controlled R<vkv Mt bull hunts (rifle), the department is recom
mending no change in tag numbers from last year
These and other big-game proposals are to be decided upon by the Fish
and W ildlifc Commission when the final rules are adopted during a hear
ing at O D FW headquarters on February 10 Input from a series o f public
meetings held throughout the state in late January to discuss 1040 big-game
proposals will also he considered by the commission at that hearing; un
fortunately. the list of nK*eting sites and dates were not received from the
department in time to allow publication before the meetings
It has been proposed that applications for early controlled hunts must
be cancelled with an official U S Postal Service post mark no later than
April 2. 1940 Copies o f the 1440 Early Big Game Synopsis as well as
controlled hunt application forms are
available at licensing agents dur
mg the week o f March KL some two to three weeks before the deadline.
Given this, every attempt will he made to report the commission's final
rulings on controlled hunt regulations in this column as stvon as the infor

plication strategics lor fall hunts
Prospective controlled spring bear hunters will again need to apply for
