Rule 12.4.202 - ADMINISTRATION OF BLOCK MANAGEMENT PROGRAM(1) Under 87-1-301(1) (c), MCA, and 87-1-303, MCA, the fish, wildlife, and parks commission has authority to develop rules governing the use of lands controlled by the department or that it operates under agreement with federal, state or private landowners. These statutes are the basis for the block management program administered by the department. The hunter management program and the hunter enhancement program as described under 87-1-267, MCA, are similar in intent and differ only in terms of license benefits for non-resident landowners who are eligible for the program. Both programs are administered under these rules as block management areas.NEW, 1994 MAR p. 1691, Eff. 6/24/94; AMD, 1996 MAR p. 1139, Eff. 4/26/96.87-1-301, 87-1-303, MCA; IMP, 87-1-301, 87-1-303, MCA;
