87-3-106 . Hunting and fishing prohibited in fire-danger areas.
(1)When the fire danger becomes so extreme that the governor, upon the advice and recommendation of the department of natural resources and conservation, closes an area to trespass because of fire danger, that area is automatically closed to hunting or fishing and remains closed while the fire closure remains in effect.
(2)A board of county commissioners may initiate a request for a closure by submitting the request to the department. However, the department may adopt reasonable rules specifying the fire prevention and suppression measures that must have been taken by the board before a request may be submitted and considered.
