Private shooting preserve operators can now transport harvested birds to off-site lodges or cleaning facilities before tagging them, provided the birds came exclusively from preserve acres, harvest data is logged in the department database before leaving, and a preserve employee delivers them directly with the required kill tags in hand. This change streamlines operations for preserve businesses by allowing birds to be processed away from the hunting grounds while maintaining tracking requirements and preventing commingling of birds from different sources.
