Beginning in 2011, vouchers issued under this subsection for GMU 1 shall be valid throughout the entire GMU and may be redeemed for a license valid during any one of the following seasons: early rifle, archery, or muzzleloading, provided further that license holders must comply with all applicable season restrictions, including, but not limited to, applicable manner of take restrictions (Hunt Codes: EE001Y1R , EE001Y1A, EE001Y1M, or EE010Y1R). The remaining five licenses will be made available to the general public as either-sex licenses (Hunt Codes: EE001Y2R and EE010Y2R) valid GMU-wide during the first regular rifle season. Five antlerless licenses floating between the 3rd and 4th regular rifle seasons shall be made available to the general public for each either-sex private land only transferable voucher issued to a participating landowner (Hunt Codes: EF001Y2R, EF001Y3R, EF001Y4R, EF001Y5R, EF010Y3R, EF010Y4R).
         1. aa. A landowner must own a minimum of 640 acres to be eligible to receive a voucher pursuant to this subsection. State Trust Lands controlled or leased by a landowner shall not count toward the minimum ownership requirements of this subsection.

Access for general public antlerless hunting shall be provided during the 3rd and 4th regular rifle seasons, except that, beginning in 2011, access for general public antlerless hunting in GMU 1 shall be provided during the 2 nd (EF001Y2R), 3 rd and 4 th regular rifle seasons, and during the late rifle season (EF001Y5R).
         4. dd. Except as otherwise agreed to in writing by the Division, landowners drawing any voucher pursuant to this subparagraph must provide for equality of access in terms of geographical area and mode of transportation for both private and public hunters holding a pilot program license. No closure or restriction of land or roads shall apply to public hunters that do not also apply to private hunters. Provided however, landowners drawing any voucher must allow public hunters reasonable access through their private land to public land.
         5. ee. Landowner vouchers may be transferred one time only, and shall only be transferred by the landowner to the hunter that will use the voucher to purchase the license. Third-party brokering of landowner vouchers is not permitted. Violation of this subsection shall invalidate the applicable landowner voucher and any license purchased with it.
         6. ff. For GMU 1 only, beginning in 2011, a pre-approved habitat project must be completed annually prior to submission of a landowner application under this program.
      4. 4. A unit managed for maximum hunter opportunity shall also be proposed for inclusion in the Wildlife Landowner Conservation Pilot Program. Such unit shall be investigated and a program developed for implementation during the 2007 big game hunting season. The primary objectives of this program shall include relieving pressure on public land by increasing public hunting access on private lands, discouraging harboring big game animals on private land and providing wildlife habitat on private lands through an incentive-based program.
      5. 5. A pilot program, beginning in the 2002 hunting season, will be used to evaluate the issuance of additional applications and licenses. The pilot will be conducted and evaluated in six select DAU's, as follows, which provide the opportunity to evaluate a range of issues and problems that may arise:
         1. aa. Elk: 2 DAU's (one quality and one non-quality)
         2. bb. Deer: 2 DAU's (one east of I-25 and one quality DAU west of I-25) cc. Pronghorn: 2 DAU's (one east and one west of I-25)
      6. 6. The pilot will end and be evaluated at the close of the 2004 hunting season.
      7. 7. As part of the pilot program, the Commission may provide additional applications within the 15% license allocation to landowners who provide valuable game habitat or habitat management, allow voluntary public access, or other factors to achieve game management objectives. The Commission may also provide additional licenses valid on private land or specifically approved intermingled lands only, over and above the 15% allocation. An increase will be recommended by the HEC if game management objectives for the species for which additional licenses are requested are not being met and if additional harvest of male or female animals on private land will facilitate achievement of game management objectives.
      8. 8. Landowners seeking eligibility for additional applications must submit an annual habitat matrix for evaluation by the HEC. The matrix will be used to evaluate existing valuable habitat, habitat improvements for the benefit of game species, including game species other than those for which the licenses would be issued, assist in determining if and to whom additional applications will be supplied, and who will be eligible for licenses issued beyond the mandated 15%. The HEC will assist in the development of these habitat matrices, and provide recommendations to the commission or their designee.
      9. 9. In addition to the criteria in #3 and #4 above, the HEC may consider other criteria to achieve game management objectives including, but not limited to, goals for increased tolerance for larger game populations on private land and provision of increased or more diverse hunting opportunity, the granting of conservation or agricultural easements, the provision of hunting access for reduction of the female segment of the population, or reduction in game damage.
      10. 10. Landowners who are granted additional applications will have the option to apply for preference points instead of a voucher.
      11. 11. Vouchers for licenses remaining within the landowner allocations will be distributed to landowners in the same proportion as those issued according to acreage criteria. Ties will be reconciled using random draw numbers.
   3. c. Youth Preference - up to 15 percent of the number of the limited doe pronghorn licenses, either-sex and antlerless deer licenses and antlerless elk licenses established for each GMU shall be made available for purchase by qualified youth applicants, Licenses shall be available through application and computer selection from the Division headquarters, 6060 Broadway, Denver, CO 80216.

   8. h. Preference Points and Chances
      1. 1. Preference will be given for qualifying applications for first choice hunt codes only and shall be subject to the following provisions:
         1. aa. Deer, Elk, Pronghorn, and Bear: one preference point will be awarded to each person who qualifies for and fails to draw a limited license for deer, elk, pronghorn, or bear as a first choice in the regular drawing or who applies using a first choice hunt code established for the purpose of accumulating a preference point only. Preference points will be used in future drawings for the same species and will accumulate until the applicant obtains a first choice license. When an applicant obtains a first choice license, all accumulated preference points for that species become void. If an applicant both fails to apply for a species and has not purchased a license for that same species during any given 10-year period, all accumulated preference points for that species become void. If an applicant accepts a first choice license that has been returned and reissued, all accumulated preference points for that species become void. In those hunt codes requiring 10 or more resident preference points to draw, up to 20 percent of available licenses for deer, elk, pronghorn and bear shall be issued through a random drawing. The number of preference points required to draw shall be determined by no more than a three-year average. A minimum of five individual preference points is required for an applicant to participate in the random drawing. Group applications shall not be eligible to participate in the random drawing.
         2. bb. In addition to the $3 application fee, an unsuccessful applicant (except youth as defined by 33-4-117 C.R.S., lifetime license holders, and Colorado resident military personnel on active duty outside Colorado), or one who applies using a first choice hunt code established for the purpose of accumulating a preference point only, for deer, elk, pronghorn or bear will be assessed a $25 fee to receive a preference point unless they have purchased one of the following: an annual license (fishing (including free senior annual), small game or resident combination small game/fishing license, furbearer) for the year previous to which they are seeking a preference point; any big game license for the previous year or a current draw license for the species for which they are seeking a preference point. The $25 fee, per species, shall entitle the hunter to preference points for any unsuccessful deer, elk, pronghorn or bear application in that year.
         3. cc. Rocky Mountain Bighorn Sheep, Mountain Goat, and Moose: One preference point will be awarded to each person who qualifies for and fails to draw a first choice license, until three preference points have been accumulated. Each time an applicant with three (3) points qualifies for and fails to draw a first choice license for bighorn sheep, mountain goat or moose the applicant will be awarded one (1) additional chance in future drawings for that species. Applicants who have "X" number of chances will have "X" times the probability of drawing a license compared to those with one (1) chance (i.e. those who are using their three (3) points for the first time). For example, applicants with two (2) chances will have double the probability of drawing compared to applicants for the same hunt code having only one (1) chance. When an applicant obtains a first choice license, all accumulated preference points for that species become void. If an applicant both fails to apply for a species and has not purchased a license for that same species during any given 10-year period, all accumulated preference points for that species become void. If an applicant accepts a first choice license that has been returned and reissued, all accumulated preference points for that species become void.
         4. dd. Applications receiving preference points will be given priority over all applications with fewer points. Group applications will receive preference at the level of the group member with the fewest accumulated preference points, and, where applicable, the fewest accumulated chances, except that group applications will not be successful, regardless of preference point level or number of chances, when there are fewer licenses remaining in the hunt code quota than the number of applicants in the group.
         5. ee. In lieu of applying through the regular limited license draw, any active duty member of the United States Armed Forces who is stationed at any military facility in Colorado and actively deployed outside the United States, or any active duty member of the United States Armed Forces who is a Colorado resident and is deployed outside the United States, shall, upon their return to the United States, be eligible to apply for preference points for any limited license draw that occurred during their absence. Applications for preference points shall be made on forms provided by the Division and filed within six months upon the member’s return to the United States.
5. 5. Drawing Processes
   1. a. Applications using landowner preference and youth preference shall be drawn, in that order, prior to drawing general public applications for the same species.
   2. b. Except as otherwise provided, applicants who applied properly for deer, elk, or pronghorn in the regular drawing and are unsuccessful will be given an option to: Apply for a leftover drawing. Request a refund. Donate that refund to the Division's nongame or Operation Game Thief fund. No such donation may be split between the two funds. Request an unlimited antlered elk license.
   3. c. Unsuccessful applicants for bear, bighorn sheep, mountain goat, or moose will receive a refund check.
   4. d. Unsuccessful applicants will be notified of their accumulated preference points and chances on their refund check stub, on their leftover drawing letter, or on their carcass tag, whichever is applicable.
   5. e. Nonresident hunter drawing limitations (first choice applications only)
      1. 1. Nonresidents hunters shall receive no more than 10% of available moose, bighorn sheep and mountain goat licenses for all hunt codes. In the event there are an insufficient number of nonresident applications for the allocated number of moose, bighorn sheep or mountain goat licenses in any hunt code, the excess nonresident licenses will be issued to residents through the regular drawing process.
      2. 2. Unless there is an insufficient number of resident applications, nonresident hunters shall receive no more than 35% of available deer and elk licenses for hunt codes requiring fewer than six preference points for resident hunters to draw in the regular drawing, and no more than 20% of available deer and elk licenses for hunt codes requiring six or more preference points for resident hunters to draw in the regular drawing. These drawing limitations do not apply to the issuance of Private Land Only and Ranching For Wildlife licenses.
6. 6. Leftover Licenses, Drawing Provisions and Restrictions
   1. a. Elk, deer, pronghorn and bear licenses which are not issued through the regular drawing will be issued as "leftover" licenses, (through one "leftover" drawing process if the number of "leftover" licenses is sufficient to justify the administrative cost).
   2. b. Only persons who apply for a limited license and who are unsuccessful are eligible for the leftover license drawing. Applicants for the leftover drawing may only apply for the same species that they applied for in the initial drawing.
   3. c. Any eligible hunter, ages 12 - 17 shall receive preference for leftover deer and elk licenses.
   4. d. Any active duty member of the United States Armed Forces stationed at any military facility in Colorado and actively deployed outside the United States, or any active duty member of the United States Armed Forces who is a Colorado resident and is deployed outside the United States, shall be allowed a preference for the purchase of leftover licenses prior to their sale to the general public.
   5. e. Group applications are not accepted for leftover licenses.
   6. f. Applicants must respond on the forms provided to the individuals by the Division following the regular drawing.
   7. g. Applications must be postmarked no later than the first Tuesday in July, annually.
   8. h. Applications not postmarked by the first Tuesday in July, annually, will receive a refund.
   9. i. Leftover Wildlife Ranching licenses will not be available through the standard over-the- counter leftover process.

B. Youths ages 12-17 may participate in any open or continuing late or Private Land Only (PLO), or any other regularly scheduled antlerless elk hunt starting the day after the last day of the last regular rifle season through January 31, provided they possess an unfilled limited antlerless elk license originally valid in that same DAU from a season which has already been completed, comply with applicable regulations for the specific late or PLO hunt in which they participate, and are accompanied by a mentor. A mentor must be at least 18 years of age and comply with hunter education requirements. The mentor may not hunt except in units for which they possess a late or Private Land Only elk license valid for the same dates. Youth hunters may hunt in a regularly scheduled antlerless elk hunt after the last day of the last regular rifle season regardless of when the late or extended season started. Youths with unfilled limited either-sex elk licenses who wish to hunt in the late antlerless youth elk hunt may do so provided that they must bring their license to the Division and have it converted to an antlerless elk license prior to hunting. Youths who possess an unfilled extended season or late season antlerless elk license may hunt in a late antlerless elk season in another unit in that same DAU between the day after the 4th Combined Rifle Season and January 31, provided the season on the original license has ended.

C. Youths ages 12-17 may participate in any December pronghorn season in the following GMUs: 110, 111, 112, 113, 114, 115, 116, 117, 118, 119, 120, 121, 122, 123, 124, 125, 126, 127, 128, 129, 130, 132, 133, 134, 135, 136, 137, 138, 139, 140, 141, 142, 143, 145, 146 or 147, provided they possess an unfilled pronghorn doe license from a season which has already been completed for any other unit and comply with applicable regulations for the specific hunt in which they participate. Youths with unfilled either-sex pronghorn licenses who wish to hunt in the late youth pronghorn doe hunt may do so provided that they bring their license to the Division and have it converted to a doe pronghorn license prior to hunting.

D. Any license marked or stamped for a season and unit, or portions thereof, is valid only as marked on the license.

E. A person may not hunt bear with an over the counter license during any regular rifle deer or elk season west of I-25 or in unit 140, unless they also possess a deer or elk license (filled or unfilled) valid in the same unit and for the same time period (season) and manner of take. Provided further that a hunter may only hunt in one bear season when an extended deer or elk season overlaps more than one bear season. If the deer or elk license is a Private Land Only license, use of the bear license is restricted to private land as well. The restrictions of this subsection shall not apply to hunt codes BE083P1R and BE084P5R.

F. Any person may take coyotes with an unfilled big game license in the same unit and season and by the same manner of take.
