Any person engaged in hunting in this state shall be deemed to have  given his consent to a chemical test of his  breath,  blood,  urine,  or  saliva  for  the purpose of determining the alcoholic or drug content of  his blood, provided that such test is administered at the direction of a  police  officer  or  officer  of   the   department   of   environmental  conservation:  (a)  having  reasonable grounds to believe such person to  have been engaged in hunting in violation of any subdivision of  section  11-1203  of  this title, and within two hours after such person has been  placed under arrest for any such violation,  or  (b)  within  two  hours  after  a  breath  test,  administered  pursuant  to  the  provisions  of  subdivision one of  this  section,  indicates  that  alchohol  has  been  consumed   by  such  person,  and  in  accordance  with  the  rules  and  regulations established  by  the  law  enforcement  unit  of  which  the  administering officer is a member.    3.  If  such person, having been placed under arrest or after a breath  test indicates  the  presence  of  alcohol  in  his  system  and  having  thereafter  been requested to submit to chemical test, refuses to submit  to such chemical test, the test shall not be given, and a report of such  refusal shall be forwarded by the officer under whose direction the test  was requested to the department  of  environmental  conservation  within  seventy-two  hours and the department shall revoke all licenses, stamps,  and permits to hunt which such person may  possess;  provided,  however,  that such revocation shall become effective only after a hearing held by  the department upon notice to such person, unless such hearing is waived  by such person.    4.  A  license,  stamp,  or  permit  to  hunt may, upon the basis of a  report, verified as hereinafter provided, of the  administering  officer  that  he  had  reasonable  grounds  to  believe such person to have been  engaged in conduct in violation of any subdivision of section 11-1203 of  this title and that said person had refused to submit to such  test,  be  temporarily  suspended without notice pending the determination upon any  such hearing. Such report may be verified by having the report sworn to,  or by affixing to such report a form notice that false  statements  made  therein  are  punishable  as  a  class A misdemeanor pursuant to section  210.45 of the penal law and such form notice together with the signature  of the deponent shall constitute a verification of the report.    5. No license, stamp, or permit to hunt shall be revoked because of  a  refusal  to  submit  to  such  chemical  test  if the hearing officer is  satisfied that the person requested to submit to such chemical test  had  not  been  warned  prior to such refusal to the effect that a refusal to  submit to such chemical test  may  result  in  the  revocation  of  such  license,  stamp,  or permit to hunt whether or not he is found guilty of  the charge for which he has been arrested.    6. The department of health shall issue and file rules and regulations  approving  satisfactory  techniques  or  methods,   to   ascertain   the  qualifications  and  competence  of individuals to conduct and supervise  chemical analyses of a person's blood, urine, breath or saliva.  If  the  analyses  were  made  by an individual possessing a permit issued by the  department of health,  this  shall  be  presumptive  evidence  that  the  examination  was  properly  given. The provisions of this subdivision do  not prohibit the introduction as evidence of  an  analysis  made  by  an  individual  other  than  a  person  possessing  a  permit  issued by the  department of health.
