    Chapter 5, Antelope Hunting Seasons At the time of this filing, the 2020 antelope harvest information is not yet available to the Department. Individual hunt area regular hunting season dates, special archery hunting season dates, hunt area limitations, license types and license quotas may be modified after harvest data has been evaluated. Any additional proposed changes to regular hunting season dates, special archery hunting season dates, hunt area limitations, numbers of limited quota licenses, license types, hunt area boundaries or modifications to other hunting provisions shall be made available for public comment on the Department website. An updated draft of 2021antelope hunting season proposals will also be posted to the Department website during the later portion of the public comment period. Section 4, edits have been proposed to further clarify antelope hunting season provisions for persons who qualify for and are in possession of hunting season extension permits. During the 2020 hunting season, special archery season information was repositioned within this regulation and caused some confusion among hunting season extension permit holders. The edited language in this Section is meant to clarify when a hunting season extension permit is valid. Please scroll down to view the regulation or click the down arrow for the next page.

  • Crook County Hazard Mitigation Plan for Inclusion in the 2018 Regional Hazard Mitigation Plan
    REGION 1 HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN CROOK COUNTY ANNEX 1 Mitigation Planning and Crook County Planning Team This annex has been created during the development of the 2018 Region 1 Hazard Mitigation Plan (referred to as the Main Plan or Base Plan herein). This County Annex builds upon previous versions of the Crook County Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan completed in 2013. The plan is the result of a collaborative effort between Crook County Government, municipal governments, citizens, public agencies, non-profit organizations and the private sector. The Local Emergency Planning Committee (LEPC) held responsibility for implementation and maintenance of the plan. Crook County Emergency Management was responsible for updating the plan in coordination with a multi- jurisdictional Hazard Mitigation Planning Committee (HMPC) which was formed for the creation of the 2017-8 Regional Plan. The following jurisdictions participated in the planning process: • Crook County • Town of Hulett • City of Moorcroft • Town of Pine Haven • City of Sundance More details on the planning process followed and how the counties, municipalities and stakeholders participated can be referenced in Chapter 3 of the base plan, as well as how the public was involved during the 2018 update. 2 Geography and Climate The county of Crook covers about 2,854 square miles of land in the northeast corner of Wyoming, sharing a border with the States of South Dakota and Montana. The Belle Fourche and Little Missouri Rivers, including numerous tributaries, drain the county. The highest mountainous points reach about 6,600 feet in the Bear Lodge Mountain Range on the Black Hills National Forest, present in a northeast-southwest fashion through the center of the county.
