JUDGE DECISION

I have reviewed the records of the Office of Administrative Hearings and as co-custodian of such records have determined:

The Office of Administrative Hearings transmitted the Administrative Law Judge Decision in the above entitled matter to the Arizona Game and Fish Department by electronic filing.

The Arizona Game and Fish Department was required to accept, reject, or modify the Administrative Law Judge Decision within the statutory deadline as calculated pursuant to A.R.S. § 41-1092.08 and A.R.S. § 1-243, as evidenced by receipt of such action by the Office of Administrative Hearings.

No action by the Arizona Game and Fish Department was received by the Office of Administrative Hearings as of December 12, 2024, more than five days beyond the statutory deadline.

Therefore, pursuant to A.R.S. § 41-1092.08(D), the attached Administrative Law Judge Decision is certified as the final administrative decision of the Arizona Game and Fish Department.
