DNR council meeting in Newberry

NEWBERRY — The Michigan Department of Natural Resources Eastern Upper Peninsula Citizens’ Advisory Council is scheduled to discuss results of a deer camp survey, a U.P. deer harvest comparison and the DNR’s new license system and an eastern U.P. trails update when the council meets from 6 to 8:30 Wednesday at the Luce-Mackinac-Alger-Schoolcraft Health Department office, located at 14150 Hamilton Lake Road in Newberry.

The public can participate in the session by offering comments to the discussion during two specified periods during the meeting. For instructions, see Michigan.gov/UPCAC.

The DNR’s eastern and western Upper Peninsula citizens’ advisory councils are designed to provide local input to advise the DNR on regional programs and policies, identify areas in which the department can be more effective and responsive and offer insight and guidance from members’ own experiences and constituencies.

The council members represent a wide variety of natural resource and recreation interests. Agenda items are set by the council members and council recommendations are forwarded to the DNR for consideration.

To find nomination forms, to be considered as a potential council member, or to locate meeting packets and agendas, visit Michigan.gov/UPCAC. For more information, contact the DNR Upper Peninsula coordinator’s office at 906-226-1331.
