DNR and Chippewas to meet on resource cooperation
DNR Secretary Carroll Besadny will meet Lac Courte Oreilles leaders to urge cooperation on fish and game harvesting. Previous talks with Lac du Flambeau yielded agreement on joint resource protection, while hunting and fishing rights expansion decisions were deferred amid a broader tribal consensus. Local members criticized the 7th U.S. Circuit stay on a ruling granting Chippewas hunting rights on ceded lands, arguing self governance and conservation traditions. Besadny pledged state aid for resource management on the 8,000 acre reservation, noting possible funding limits from the Legislature.
