DNR completes review of Gogebic Taconite’s bulk sampling plan

Can Gogebic Taconite be trusted?
MADISON – The Department of Natural Resources has completed its review of Gogebic Taconite’s revised Bulk Sampling Plan related to the company’s potential mining project in northern Wisconsin, and has identified all DNR approvals that will be required before bulk sampling may begin. The company submitted a revised Bulk Sampling Plan as part of its response to DNR’s August 2013 request for additional information.
According to Larry Lynch, DNR project manager, the department determined that Gogebic Taconite must obtain a stormwater permit, file a claim of exemption from air permitting, file tree cutting notices and reports with the county clerk and department forester and file a bond for reclamation.
Lynch added that, while the company pursues and secures the needed approvals, the department will continue to correspond with Gogebic Taconite to gain additional clarifying information regarding the company’s proposed bulk sampling activity.

Landowners encouraged to take advantage of incentives to open lands to public for spring turkey hunt

MILWAUKEE – The Department of Natural Resources is encouraging private landowners in southeast Wisconsin to sign up for the Turkey Hunting Access Program. This is a voluntary pilot program offered by the DNR that provides financial incentives to private landowners who open their property to public turkey hunting. The deadline to enroll is May 29, 2016. Participants can sign up for three years. Annual lease rates are $5 dollars per acre, per year, with an upfront payment from the state for the term of the lease to May 29, 2016.
“For hunters looking to take part in next spring’s turkey season, finding available land can be difficult,” according to Justin Blindert, DNR turkey hunting access program coordinator. “Both landowners and hunters can benefit from this program. Landowners can take advantage of the financial incentives and hunters can access new areas for the spring turkey hunt.”
Any landowner who is located within turkey management zone two is eligible to apply. Turkey management zone two is comprised of Washington, Ozaukee, Waukesha, Milwaukee, Racine, Kenosha and Walworth counties. Grassland, wetland, forest land and agricultural land are eligible for enrollment. Land adjacent to public land or land enrolled in the Voluntary Public Access Program is not eligible, but land enrolled in the Conservation Reserve Program, Wetland Reserve Program or Managed Forest Law is eligible for enrollment. Properties greater than 40 acres with more than 50 percent forested cover will receive priority.
Spring turkey hunting is the only activity allowed on Turkey Hunting Access Program properties. Land will be open for public use from March 1 through May 29 for legal spring turkey hunting and scouting.

New Atlas of Public Access Lands of Wisconsin available online or in print

MADISON - A new Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources Public Access Lands Atlas is now available online and in a printable format. The atlas highlights the significant increase in public access to Wisconsin lands made possible through the Knowles-Nelson Stewardship Program, as well as other lands open to the public for outdoor recreation.
"If you are looking for a place to fish, hunt, trap, or enjoy any of Wisconsin's outdoor activities this atlas will help you find public lands to do so," said DNR Secretary Cathy Stepp. In her introduction to the atlas, Stepp notes: "From state natural areas to state trails, lake shores and rivers, Wisconsin has a wealth of public lands for your enjoyment. These are your public lands and are there for you to connect with the outdoors, not too far from home."
The atlas contains 441 maps, two indexes, a glossary, and extensive contact information to help you connect with land managers to learn more about the properties.
The Wisconsin Legislature created the Knowles-Nelson Stewardship Program in 1989 to preserve valuable natural areas and wildlife habitat, protect water quality and fisheries, and expand opportunities for outdoor recreation. Since its inception the program has added more than 500,000 acres of land through direct purchase or easement that is open to public recreation. These lands are owned by the Department of Natural Resources, non-profit conservation organizations and local governments. In addition the atlas shows the location of other state, county forest and federal lands open to the public.
Secretary Stepp continued, "I hope you create many new outdoor memories with friends and family through the use of this atlas." You can view the secretary's full video message here:
