The Kansas department of wildlife and parks may reissue big game or wild turkey limited draw permits to military personnel forced to forfeit their limited draw permit due to deployment in the event of armed conflict or war upon application and payment of the prescribed fee to the department and sufficient proof of such deployment. The permit, if reissued, shall be the same type, season and species permit that was forfeited and shall be valid during the next available hunting season upon return from the armed conflict or war by the applicant provided that the secretary may defer the reissuance of a permit to a future hunting season if the overall demand for reissued permits exceeds the anticipated annual sustainable harvest for that species. The reissuance of a permit shall be based on a first come, first served basis.
