Chapter NR 13

NR 13.02(8) (8) “Remaining tribal quota” means the difference between the tribal quota and the cumulative harvest of the particular species by all treaty rights participants using all harvest methods permissible under this chapter. The cumulative harvest includes all harvest to the date that the remaining tribal quota is calculated. If the cumulative harvest exceeds the tribal quota, the remaining tribal quota shall be zero.

NR 13.02(9) (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.
