DESCRIPTION: Investigative reports, continuation reports, progress reports, and closing reports.

Wildlife law enforcement officers are required to make a report on violations as authorized under UCA 23-20-1 (1995) whenever any portion of the Wildlife Code is violated.

Most reports, however, have a short-term value.
