The Game Commission's proposed rulemaking, published in the PA Bulletin Aug. 27, 2011, would amend § 137.34 of the Pennsylvania Code by updating the terminology and procedures relating to the Director's emergency authority in regards to Chronic Wasting Disease. These proposed amendments aim to create consistency with the Commonwealth's Interagency Chronic Wasting Disease Response Plan. Comments are being accepted through September 27, 2011.
