(9) “Safe harvest" means a level of harvest meeting the guidelines of
Lac Courte Oreilles Band of Lake Superior Chippewa v. Wisconsin, 707 F. Supp. 1034 (W.D. Wis. 1989) that incorporates an appropriate margin of safety, estimates of the population and acceptable exploitation rates which will reasonably prevent harvest of more than 35% of the population of adult walleyes and 27% of the population of adult muskellunge. The margin of safety shall assure that the true safe harvest is not exceeded in more than 1 of 40 cases. For waters where a population estimate has not been made, a regression model based upon population estimates from other waters shall be used. The margin of safety used depends upon the age of the population estimate and whether a regression model was used.
