At its next meeting on Wednesday,
January 25, the Regulations Committee of the Texas Parks and Wildlife
Commission will present proposed amendments to the 2012-2013 Statewide
Hunting Proclamation. It will seek permission for them to be published
in the Texas Register for public comment. These
amendments include a regulatory change that would expand the use of
lawfully-possessed suppressors on firearms while hunting non-nuisance
species. This common sense reform will help prevent hearing loss and
mitigate noise complaints against sportsmen in the Lone Star State.
Importantly, reducing noise complaints will help to keep hunting
opportunities open well into the future.
Testimony will not be heard
at this committee meeting on January 25, or at the full Commission
meeting the following day. We will report back to you with instructions
on how to weigh-in on this proposal after it has been formally
submitted for public comment.
