What Is The Proposed Permanent Rule?
Using the regular rulemaking process, this rule proposal will achieve two primary objectives. First, it will codify provisions of an emergency rule, EmR 1210, which went into effect on Aug. 18, 2012. Non-statutory provisions of 2011 ACT 169 state that this emergency rule remains in effect until a permanent rule takes effect. Second, it will implement recommendations from and update regulatory text in consideration of a new wolf management plan.
For more information, view the materials for the proposed rule in the public hearing notice or visit the DNR’s proposed permanent rules webpage.
