Duplicates and exchanges may be obtained only through the Salem headquarters, regional offices of the department, and designated district offices. Exception: Replacement controlled hunt tags or permits will be issued at no charge only through the Salem headquarters or regional office of the department if the department determines that the person never received the original controlled tag or permit mailed from the Salem headquarters office. (2) A Controlled Buck Deer Tag or Controlled Elk Tag may be exchanged for a general season tag before the opening date of the season for which either tag is valid.

Tag or permit transfer shall require a copy of the death certificate and the original controlled hunt tag or permit, and must be requested by the legal heir to the deceased which shall be presumed by possession of the tag or permit and death certificate. (6) A leftover controlled hunt tag may only be exchanged for a general season tag, but only if the person does not already possess a tag authorized by OAR 635-065-0015 (4) (a), (b) or (c) or OAR 635-0065-0015 (5) (a), (b), (c), (d), (e), (f), or (g).

(B) Reinstating preference points lost after two consecutive years of not applying for a controlled hunt in that series. (d) Individuals seeking accommodation pursuant to this rule (or immediate family members acting on their behalf) must make a request in writing or in person to the Salem headquarters office. Each request must include a letter from a supervising officer on official unit letterhead verifying operational commitments. (8)(a) The Director may reinstate the preference points of a person who the Director determines did not or will not participate in a controlled hunt because of: (A) Circumstances beyond the person s control; or (B) Tragic personal circumstances. (b) Tragic personal circumstances means: (A) Death or life-threatening injury or illness in the person s immediate family; or (B) The person s own serious injury or illness, which results in the person s hospitalization. The person need not be hospitalized during the hunt; this rule also applies if preparation for surgery or recovery after hospitalization renders the person incapable of participating in the hunt. (c) To apply for reinstatement, the person must provide a sworn affidavit providing adequate details and must return the unused tag if it was purchased or a signed affidavit stating the tag was not used. When relying upon tragic personal circumstances, the person must also provide a sworn affidavit by a physician. When relying upon circumstances beyond the person s control, the person must also provide documentation of the circumstances (such as an accident report or affidavit from an employer). 2
(d) Circumstances beyond the person s control excludes complaints about the quality of a hunt (including, but not limited to, road closures, inclement weather and work being conducted in the hunt area). (e) If the Director decides that the person does not qualify for reinstatement, the person may appeal that decision to the Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission (Commission). The Commission must review the Director s decision within 60 days after receipt of appeal. The Commission will not take verbal testimony from the person, and the Commission s decision is final. (f) If the Director or Commission reinstates a person s preference point under this subsection, the person is not awarded a new point for being classified as unsuccessful and is not entitled to a refund of license or tag fees. 3

A landowner can have only one registration form on file with the department. The registration form is an affidavit certifying ownership, number of acres owned, the county and Wildlife Management Unit where the property is located. This registration form registers the individual and remains valid until the individual registered no longer qualifies as a landowner as defined under OAR 635-045-0002, writes to the department requesting the registration form be deleted, or the department notifies the landowner that a renewal is required. (2) In addition to having a landowner preference registration form on file with the department, a landowner shall submit a tag distribution form annually. The tag distribution form shall list the names of the landowner, stockholder(s), partner(s), and their immediate family members to receive tags for pronghorn antelope, and the names of the landowner, stockholder(s), partner(s), their immediate family members, and those persons of the landowners choosing to receive landowner preference tags for deer and elk. (3) Landowners shall submit registration forms and tag distribution forms prior to September 15 for all controlled 100 series buck deer and bull elk hunts, and through the day prior to the season openings for 600 series anterlerless deer, antlerless elk, and doe/fawn pronghorn antelope hunts. 36
(4) Registration forms and tag distribution forms are available at no charge in any office of the department. (5) Registration forms, tag distribution forms, and applications shall be received at the Salem headquarters office of the department prior to issuance of any landowner preference tag, except as provided for in OAR 635-075-0007. Landowners are not required to submit proof of ownership with their registration form. Landowners shall be required to submit proof of ownership at the request of the department or the Oregon State Police acting on behalf of the department. (6) A landowner, stockholder(s), partner(s), and immediate family and those persons of the landowners choosing wishing to also apply for controlled hunt tags shall apply by the May 15 controlled hunt deadline. Listing a hunt choice other than a landowner preference choice is not required. (7) Everyone shall follow controlled hunt application procedures and regulations as described in OAR Division 060.

Season dates of the transferred landowner preference tags shall be the same dates as the original tag. (10) Landowner preference tags for the hunting of antlered deer or elk that are issued to a person of the landowner s choosing who is not a member of the landowner s, partner s, or stockholder s immediate family may be used to take an antlered animal only as follows: (a) If the landowner is eligible for two, three, or four preference tags, one of those tags may be so used.

(c) If the landowner is eligible for eight, nine or 10 preference tags, three of those tags may be so used. (d) If the landowner is eligible for 11 or 12 preference tags, four of those tags may be so used. (e) If the landowner is eligible for 13 or 14 preference tags, five of those tags may be so used. (11) A landowner who is qualified to receive landowner hunting preference tags may request two additional tags for providing public access and/or two additional tags for wildlife habitat programs. This request shall be made to the Access and Habitat Board with supporting evidence that the access is significant and the habitat programs benefit wildlife. The board may recommend that the commission grant the request. These tags may not be applied to the options as defined in OAR 635-075-0005(8). 38
(12) No one shall receive both a controlled hunt tag and a landowner preference tag for the same type of hunt. Landowner hunting preference tags shall not be issued to any person successful in the controlled hunt drawing for the same type of hunt.
