ST. PAUL — Individuals interested in good stewardship of budgeted funds and how agency operations are funded through hunting and fishing licenses and related monies are invited to apply for a two-year appointment on the Fisheries Oversight Committee or the Wildlife Oversight Committee.
Each year, these committees review financial data and descriptions, and make recommendations on how the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources spends funds from the Game and Fish Fund and produce a joint annual report.
The application deadline is Sept. 30. An online application link is available at dnr.state.mn.us/gamefishoversight/index.html.
The DNR hosts online technology for meetings and offers mileage reimbursement for those who travel to meet in person. Applicants must be Minnesota residents who have purchased at least one personal or commercial Minnesota license for hunting, fishing or trapping since Jan. 1, 2019.
