Welcome to Waukesha County Land Conservancy’s Deer Hunting Policies For 2009

In an effort to unify and streamline the hunting policies on certain lands owned by Waukesha County Land Conservancy, we have created new guidelines for potential hunters:

Deer hunting application forms will no longer automatically be sent out each year. It will be the hunter’s responsibility to download and complete the application form found on this web site.

The form must then be mailed to our Hunting Program Coordinator (address below) who will add it to the pool of hunters in the lottery. (People without access to a computer can call or write for a paper application form to be sent to them.)

There will be a $10 application fee charged for each application. This is non-refundable. No other fees will be charged for hunters chosen in the lottery.

We have three sites available for deer hunting (Tamarack Swamp Preserve in Menomonee Falls, Ottawa Wildlife Refuge and Scuppernong Preserve both in Town of Ottawa). You may apply for any or all of these sites. (See map below)

ONLY antlerless deer may be hunted in 2009. (We are trying to reduce the deer herd.)

Each 2009 hunting permit issued will be for both gun and archery seasons.

You may hunt with a “hunting buddy”. Both you and your buddy’s names will be put in the pool. If either one is selected, the other automatically receives a hunting permit for the same site(s).

The number of permits to be issued at each site is: Tamarack-8, Ottawa-18, and Scuppernong-4. (These numbers are based on the size of each site.)

Applicants must agree to abide by the Hunting Regulations attached to this web site.

Applications are due June 30, 2009. Only those hunters whose names are randomly drawn from the pool will be notified by mail no later than July 15th. If you do not receive a signed permit by that time, it means your name was not drawn and you will not be further notified. You may apply next year.

Hunters who are issued permits to hunt at Tamarack Swamp Preserve are required to contact the Menomonee Falls Police Department to fill out a form which must be signed by the hunter and a representative of the Waukesha County Land Conservancy. The form should be sent to the deer hunting coordinator for signing (address below). Include a selfaddressed
envelope with the form.
