The suspension referred to in subsection (1) of this section may be applicable in all or any portion of this state, and shall be effective for a specified or indeterminate period until it appears to the Governor that the possible excessive fire danger no longer exists. A suspension for an indeterminate period shall be terminated by proclamation of the Governor.

(3)

No person shall hunt during a period when or in an area where the appropriate season has been suspended pursuant to this section.
