Notes of Decisions

   Excessive Killing of Wildlife

   The petitioner testified that he read both the Pennsylvania and Federal regulations on a regular basis; therefore, petitioner had four opportunities to read the federal regulations and thereby realize that the seven duck bonus had been eliminated. Therefore petitioner’s arguments that the regulations were vague or confusing was rejected. Marich, Jr. v. Game Commission, 676 A.2d 1325 (Pa. Cmwlth. 1996).
