*554 57 Valid to qualifying landowners in deer quota zones where tags are distributed by public drawing (Section 554, Title 14, CCR)

* PLM 990 Valid to licensed Private Lands Management Areas (Section 601, Title 14, CCR)

Harvest with Fundraising Auction tags (Open Zone, FRO; Golden Opportunity, FRG); Archery Only tags (AO); Cooperative Deer Hunting Area Program tags (554); and Private Lands Management Program tags (PLM) are reported separate. However, for population modeling purposes, harvest with FRO, FRG, AO, 554 and PLM tags is included within the zone specific harvest and population analysis.
