(1) Prior to August 1, applicants who are successful in drawing a moose, sheep, or goat license may request to have their license voided. A voided license under this rule does not subject a hunter to the seven-year wait requirement when the applicant is:

(a) a member of the armed forces and is either deployed outside the continental United States in support of a contingency operation as provided in 10 U.S.C. 101(a)(13) or deployed in response to a state or national emergency; or

(b) affected by a catastrophic or major natural disaster or man-made event that requires the applicant's assistance as a member of a local, state, or federal management agency.

(2) Moose, sheep, and goat licenses returned under these circumstances may be reissued to unsuccessful applicants for the original drawing.
