Elk Hunting
Solicitation # SCH 2018112037
The California Fish and Game Commission is implementing regulatory actions to amend sections 353, 364, 364.1, 555, and 555.1 of Title 14, CCR, to manage elk hunting seasons, tag quotas, hunt area definitions, methods of take, and tag eligibility. These amendments aim to maintain sustainable harvests, improve management flexibility, address localized elk conflicts, and expand equitable public hunting opportunities in alignment with statewide population objectives. The initiative is supported by environmental analyses, including a 2019 Supplemental Environmental Document and a 2026 CEQA Addendum, which evaluate the environmental impacts of adjusting tag quotas and season dates to ensure compliance with wildlife conservation policies. The regulatory framework includes the establishment of cooperative elk hunting areas on private lands to encourage habitat protection and the development of a statewide elk management plan per FGC Section 3952. Hunting performance is structured across five distinct periods starting in September and concluding in December. Administrative oversight is provided by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, with the Fish and Game Commission serving as the lead agency under the California Environmental Quality Act. The scope of these actions involves analyzing harvest scenarios, elk distribution, and land ownership to balance public recreational opportunities with ecological sustainability.

Isle of Wight County is seeking sealed bids from qualified hunt clubs interested in leasing hunting rights on two distinct parcels of county-owned land, referred to as the Northern and Southern Tracts. The contract will be for an initial one-year term starting upon execution, with the county holding the option to extend the lease for five additional one-year terms, each with a 3% rent increase over the prior term. Hunting rights are limited to specific seasons designated by the Department of Wildlife Resources, including Archery and Muzzleloader Deer Seasons, a seven-week General Firearms Deer Season in the fall, and Spring Turkey Season. Hunting is permitted only on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays during these seasons, and all activities must comply with DWR regulations. Selected hunt clubs will have responsibilities beyond hunting, including maintaining trails and roads year-round and managing gate access during hunting seasons. The lease terms include adherence to a Conservation Easement that imposes numerous restrictions to protect the natural environment. These include prohibitions on constructing new roads or improvements within designated Natural Areas, preventing livestock access, avoiding vegetation removal in floodplain areas, banning fertilizers, dumping, soil disturbance outside habitat management, and restricting certain motorized vehicle use. Additionally, no horse riding, bicycling, camping, fires, or swimming are allowed within the Natural Area. Off-road vehicles may only be used during hunting seasons or for property patrol and inspection.
