If the Game, Fish and Parks Commission deems it advisable to limit the number of special nonresident waterfowl licenses issued for the hunting, taking, or killing of waterfowl during any season, the commission may by rules adopted pursuant to § 41-2-18 divide the state into two or more units, and establish limitations as to the number of such licenses to be issued and the frequency with which any person may apply for such license. If the applications exceed the number of licenses available, selection shall be made by lottery.
