PUBLIC HEARING ON PROPOSED OHRV RULE UPDATES

CONCORD, N.H. -- Amendments and updates to rules governing the use of 
Off-Highway Recreational Vehicles (OHRV) will be the topic of a public 
hearing on Friday, November 18, at 10 a.m. at New Hampshire Fish and 
Game Department headquarters on Hazen Drive in Concord.  

The proposed amendments include changes to registration and 
registration procedures resulting from the fact that processing of OHRV 
registrations is no longer handled by Correctional Industries, but in-house at 
the N.H. Fish and Game Department; updating rules to reflect statutory 
changes since the last time the rules were effective; amendments to the 
application procedure for OHRV event permits; and snowmobile and wheeled 
vehicle reciprocity with neighboring states.  

The complete rulemaking notice form, with original and proposed rule 
language, may be found at 
http://www.wildlife.state.nh.us/Legislative/Notices_summary.htm.

Written comments must be received by November 29, 2005.  Send to: 
comments@wildlife.state.nh.us (subject line should say "OHRV Rules"); 
or mail to Executive Director, N.H. Fish and Game Department, 11 Hazen 
Drive, Concord, NH 03301; or fax to (603) 271-1438.
