Section 502.4275 - Awarding of tags1. The Department shall award tags from the Partnership in Wildlife Drawing through a random order of selection conducted pursuant to a computerized system of drawing. The selection must begin with a number established by the hours, minutes, seconds and hundredths of a second set forth on the computer's clock immediately before commencing the drawing.2. The Department shall cause the computer to generate an alternate list, categorized by species, after the initial selection of tag recipients in the Partnership in Wildlife Drawing. The alternate list must consist solely of each applicant who indicated a desire to be placed on an alternate list pursuant to subsection 2 of NAC 502.4175.3. If the return of tags for a refund, pursuant to subsection 2 of NAC 502.422, reduces the number of tags awarded for the Partnership in Wildlife Drawing to less than the quota for the hunt for a species, the Department shall refill the quota by awarding tags: (a) First, pursuant to NAC 502.4195, to applicants who were rejected because of an error by the Department; and(b) Second, to applicants on the alternate list, unless there are fewer than 14 business days remaining until the opening day for that hunt.4. Except as otherwise provided in subsection 5, in awarding tags from an alternate list for a hunt, the Department shall select the eligible applicant appearing on the list who: (a) Has the drawing number with the highest priority for that species; and(b) Indicated on his or her application for the initial drawing for big game tags his or her desire to compete for that species in the Partnership in Wildlife Drawing.5. If the Department is unable to collect any fee that is required to be submitted with an application for a hunting license or tag that is awarded from the Partnership in Wildlife Drawing because the method of payment is rejected during the processing of the fee for the license or tag, the Department shall, if more than 14 business days remain until the opening day for the hunt, select an eligible applicant from the alternate list for the hunt and season who: (a) Has the drawing number with the highest priority; and(b) Indicated as the applicant's first choice the area and season for which the quota is being filled.6. The Department shall maintain a record of each applicant selected from an alternate list pursuant to this section.Nev. Admin. Code § 502.4275
