The numbers put out in this document are what puzzle me the most. They're based on a multitude of variables that are completely out of the organizing bodies control. As an example, it has been widely assumed that Deseret Ranches of Alberta will participate in this program. I've been told personally by management at Deseret Farm Management that they will not participate in the program as outlined (they want the tags but under no circumstances want residents who are not paying for their tags on their property, claiming liability issues). Well right there you have 100,000 acres plus that right now could go in two completely different directions. The number of years to draw a tag figure also puzzles me. There is no factoring aditional applicants for these draw's based on peoples reaction to a "possibility" of increased access. Anyway, just a couple of examples.
