Beginning at 4:30 p.m. Central Time, DNR staff will present division reports and answer questions from council members and the public, followed by the council meeting from 5 to 7 p.m. Central Time.
Agenda items include:
- Northern Lake Michigan Walleye Plan status update
- Lake Gogebic Yellow Perch Partnership

- Wildlife Division expenses and revenue
In addition, at the request of the CAC members, an informational meeting regarding an overview and explanation of treaty rights will take place from 3-4 p.m. Central Time at the same location.
The Eastern Upper Peninsula and Western Upper Peninsula CACs are designed 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 stakeholders and interest groups. Agenda items are set by the council members, and council recommendations are forwarded to the DNR for consideration.
CAC meetings are open to the public. If you would like to be considered as a future CAC member, please fill out the nomination form found on the DNR website at www.michigan.gov/upcac. For more information, contact DNR Upper Peninsula Regional Director Stacy Welling at 906-228-6561.
