SUBJECT: Manitowoc County
Deer Advisory Council to hold first meeting March 13th
LOCATION – The
Manitowoc County Deer Advisory Council will meet to review data and form
preliminary 2018 antlerless quota, permit and season structure recommendations.
This meeting will be held at Viking Bow and Gun Club on March 13th starting at
6:00PM.
While this is a working meeting of the council, the public is encouraged
to attend and will have a formal opportunity to provide insight during the
public comment period of the meeting.
CDACs are part
of an effort to provide more public input on deer management issues and give
stakeholders a greater responsibility in managing local deer numbers.
Councils will
review and discuss previous year’s hunting season results and long-term harvest
trends, accept public comments and develop preliminary antlerless quota, permit
and season structure recommendations. Recommendations will be sent to the
Natural Resources Board for approval in May.
Citizens are encouraged
to attend their CDACs March meeting and provide comments to the council. Local Department
of Natural Resources staff will be on hand to present information and answer
any questions.
Following the
March meetings, an online public comment period will take place from April 2-12,
with a final council meeting being held April 17th to allow the council to review
public feedback before making final recommendations on the antlerless quota,
permit and season structure.
Those unable
to attend their county’s meeting can view meeting minutes on the department’s CDAC
website at www.dnr.wi.gov.
