The
Wisconsin Conservation Congress is the only statutory body in the state where
the public elects delegates to advise the Natural Resources Board and the DNR
on responsibly managing Wisconsin's natural resources for present and future
generations. The WCC will hold elections for their delegates at each of the
in-person hearings. Two of the five WCC seats will be up for election in each
county. For those who would like to become more involved for wildlife in
Wisconsin -- did you realize that ANYONE can run for election as a Wisconsin
Conservation Congress Delegate? (Learn more about the WCC and how to become
involved in resource management decisions on the
Wisconsin
Conservation Congress webpage.)

What
is the citizen resolution process? Every year, the public has the opportunity
to bring new conservation issues of statewide significance to the attention of
the Conservation Congress through the citizen resolution process. Resolutions
must meet the following criteria: The concern must be of statewide
impact; the concern must be practical, achievable and reasonable; and
the concern must be within the mission and vision of the Wisconsin
Conservation Congress.
At the
close of the submission process, the resolutions will be reviewed by a
committee of WCC delegates to ensure they meet the criteria for inclusion and
will be prepared for the online input.
