Indiana DNR officials will present administrative rule change proposals to
the Natural Resources Commission on Jan. 20.
DNR is proposing more than 30 rule changes to protect wildlife while
addressing enforcement, legal and social concerns. Changes to deer and
turkey hunting laws, fishing regulations, turtle regulations and state
endangered species listings are being considered. The creation of a fall
turkey season, extending the coyote season, and establishing new brown trout
regulations at Brookville tailwater are a few of the rule proposals that
hunters and anglers proposed.
The NRC meeting takes place Jan. 20, 10 a.m. at the Garrison Conference
Center at Ft. Harrison State Park on the Indianapolis eastside. The meeting
is open to the public.
A public hearing will be scheduled in the spring for rules that are
preliminarily adopted by the commission.

coordinator at (317) 232-4080 (voice and TDD).
