Type: Standard
Status: Adopted
Agency: Vermont Fish and Wildlife Board
Legal Authority: 10 V.S.A. § 4082(a), 10 V.S.A. § 4084
Summary: The proposed rule amendments extend the fall archery season to begin on October 1, and extend until the Friday prior to the regular deer season. The rule also makes technical corrections to clarify the type of license required during each turkey season.
