What this is, and what it is not
The Booklet is not the law and is not an official edition of any state’s regulations: no state agency writes, reviews, publishes or approves it, and where a page here differs from the agency document it cites, the agency document is the regulation and this page is wrong.
It is an editorial compilation of state agency regulation documents: every row is carried verbatim out of one named document, cited by title, identified by the sha256 of the exact bytes we read, and printed beside the source lines it was read from.
What we do carry
- rows verbatim — no row is summarised, and every field the source row carried is rendered, including the ones we have no column for;
- each record’s own declaration of what it does not contain, printed in full and unedited, above the rows rather than under them;
- our own withdrawals — dated, with the reason as written, and the state’s rows gone from every route while the withdrawal stands.
What we do not carry
- the law itself. Every state page links the agency’s own document; that is the thing to read.
- declared gaps. Where a record says regulation exists that it does not carry, that regulation is not here — it is named, in the record’s words, and it is still missing.
- zone, unit or boundary geometry. The compilation holds no maps and this app draws none; several records declare that as a gap themselves.
- shooting hours. Clock, sunrise and sunset text is shown exactly as written — nothing here computes a sunrise, a sunset or a timezone.
- legal advice, or any judgement about whether a particular hunt is lawful for you.
- every state. Some have no record in this compilation at all and some are withheld by the verification ledger today; which is which is measured on the index page each time it is loaded, not listed here.
