Arizona Administrative Code Title 12, Ch. 4 Game and Fish Commission TITLE 12. NATURAL RESOURCES CHAPTER 4. GAME AND FISH COMMISSION Authority: A.R.S. § 17-201 et seq. Editor’s Note: The Office of the Secretary of State publishes all Chapters on white paper (Supp. 01-2). Editor’s Note: This Chapter contains rules which were adopted or amended under an exemption from the Arizona Administrative Procedure Act (A.R.S. Title 41, Chapter 6), pursuant to A.R.S. § 41-1005(A)(1). Exemption from A.R.S. Title 41, Chapter 6 means that the Game and Fish Commission did not submit notice of this rulemaking to the Secretary of State’s Office for publication in the Arizona Administrative Register; the Governor’s Regulatory Review Council did not review these rules; the Commission was not required to hold public hearings on these rules; and the Attorney General did not certify these rules. Because this Chapter contains rules which are exempt from the regular rulemaking process, the Chapter is printed on blue paper. ARTICLE 1. DEFINITIONS AND GENERAL PROVISIONS R12-4-217.
