Utah Admin. Code R657-12-9 - Telescopic Sights
(1) A person who
has a permanent vision impairment leaving them with worse than 20/40 corrected
visual acuity in the better eye may receive a Certificate of Registration to
use telescopic sights when otherwise prohibited by the rules and proclamations
of the Wildlife Board; if in the professional opinion of the eye care provider
telescopic sights will sufficiently mitigate the effects of the disability to
enable the person to:
(a) adequately discern
between lawful and unlawful wildlife species and species genders; and
(b) safely discharge a firearm or bow in the
field.
(2) A person with
a qualified vision impairment may obtain a Certificate of Registration from the
Division to use telescopic sights, when otherwise prohibited, by submitting a
signed statement from a licensed ophthalmologist, optometrist or physician
verifying that:
(a) the applicant has a
permanent vision impairment resulting in worse than 20/40 corrected visual
acuity in the better eye; and
(b)
telescopic sights will sufficiently mitigate the effects of the vision
impairment to enable the applicant to:
(i)
adequately discern between lawful and unlawful wildlife species and species
genders; and
(ii) safely discharge
a firearm or bow in the field.
