S.D. Admin. R. 41:09:01:06
Applications for new shooting preserves and renewal applications for existing shooting preserves must be received by the department no earlier than January 1 and no later than March 1 of the year the shooting preserve operation is to begin. A person may apply for a shooting preserve permit for a single season or for three successive seasons upon submitting the operation plan required by § 41:09:01:01 and paying in full at the time of application all permit fees required by SDCL 41-10-4. Issuance of a three-season permit to any shooting preserve located within one mile of a publicly owned shooting area shall be conditioned upon an annual finding by the department that the preserve does not take unfair advantage of wildlife habitat developments or wildlife populations existing on the publicly owned shooting area in accordance with the provisions of § 41:09:01:06.02.
Those permittees who are issued a three-season permit may apply for an adjustment in preserve acreages no earlier than January 1 and no later than March 1 during the second or third year of operation in which a three-season permit is in effect. All such applications shall be treated as a new shooting preserve as required by § 41:09:01:09. No refund of previously remitted preserve acreage fees is allowed for preserve acreage adjustments which lower the number of acres in a three-season preserve permit. However, previously remitted fees shall be applied toward any required permit fees that must be submitted by a permittee who is issued a three-year permit and who subsequently applies for an adjustment in preserve acreage within the term of the permit and whose new application is approved.
