§ 11-0313. Waters closed to taking of fish.
The department shall have power by regulation to close any waters of the state to the taking of fish whenever an environmental investigation it causes to be made reveals that fish life in such waters is in imminent danger of undue depletion because of low water levels brought on by drought. Any such regulation shall remain in force until the department finds that the low water emergency has passed and repeals the regulation.
