The Arizona Game and Fish Department's On-line Hunt Draw Application was unable to accept applications during a period of time from approximately 7:30 p.m. on Monday, June 10 until 8:30 a.m. on Tuesday, June 11, 2002. This system failure in no way affected already submitted applications. As a result, the Arizona Game and Fish Commission in an emergency telephonic meeting at 9:30 a.m. on Tuesday, June 11, 2002, directed the Department to extend the On-line Hunt Draw Application until 7 p.m. on Wednesday, June 12, 2002. This extended deadline applied only to on-line applications and did not apply to paper applications.

The Department apologized for any inconvenience this system failure may have caused.
