Title 17 Chapter 11 17 Pa. Code § 11.215. Weapons and hunting.
§ 11.215. Weapons and hunting.
The following activities are prohibited without written permission of the Department:
(1) Hunting, pursuing or intentionally disturbing woodchucks, also known as groundhogs. Paragraph (2) does not apply to this activity.
(2) Hunting, pursuing or intentionally disturbing wildlife unless:
(i) The person engaging in the activity is licensed by the Game Commission to hunt and is engaged in hunting in accordance with the Game and Wildlife Code.
(ii) The activity takes place in an area designated by the Department for hunting. At Presque Isle State Park, waterfowl hunting may take place only from a facility designated by the Department as a waterfowl blind, and shooting shall be directed away from State park land and over the adjacent waters.
It basically says that DCNR can restrict hunting activity as it sees fit, provided that it is located on DCNR property. State Parks fall under DCNR authority, not PGC, at least as far as usage goes.
