Wildlife Conservation Work
•Minimum of 20 hours to be certified
•Wildlife habitat work or service
•Must be approved in advance unless they meet the guidelines on the Conservation Projects page OR you have obtained the support and guidance from WDFW personnel in your local area.
•Must be approved by a representative of the organization or land owner.
•Arrangements are your responsibility
Objective: begin or sustain a lifetime of service
•.Many choices of projects:
•
- Wildlife habitat improvement projects
- Resolve animal depredation or nuisance wildlife complaints
- Support WDFW wildlife initiatives & partnerships
- Master Hunter administrative support
- Hunter Education instruction
•All projects require pre-approval unless they meet the guidelines on the Conservation Projects page OR you have obtained the support and guidance from WDFW personnel in your local area.
I would think that this falls under support WDFW initiatives & partnerships.

I read these statements to mean that before or during the volunteering you've already done, you have received the support and guidance of the WDFW personnel in your area... Does the NWTF work with/consult with the WDFW to develop the information you're providing? If not, don't be surprised if they say "no" to the previous volunteer hours, but are willing to approve your next outing as counting towards the 20.

No I know they wouldn't approve previous. Plus I am not shooting for the master hunter as of this time but a member is wanting to put in time and I didn't know if they would go for that for future events.•Must be approved in advance unless they meet the guidelines on the Conservation Projects page OR you have obtained the support and guidance from WDFW personnel in your local area.

Copy that, I misunderstood your question-I was just using examples of what we are doing but thanks for the input.

Contact WDFW to confirm. If it is not fundraising or membership recruitment it may be eligible.Thanks Bob. I just emailed Tracy Loveless about what I am asking.
