Additionally, informational meetings will be held by the department at the same time and place. The purpose of this portion of the meeting will be to conduct voting on fisheries and wildlife management related advisory questions which are being asked in order to gauge public opinion.
Rule Information
This rule proposal would allow the overnight placement of tree stands and ground blinds on lands which are managed by the Department of Natural Resources and located North of State Highway 64. For clarity of meaning, these rules would also change the way the department describes the times of day when hunting is allowed for certain species, potentially identifying them as “shooting hours” rather than “hunting hours”.
Additionally, the department is asking the public to vote on a variety of questions which are advisory only and asked in order to gauge public opinion. Those questions can be found on the department’s website and by searching for the key word, “spring hearings.”
