The department is holding a second public hearing on a proposed rule, Board Order FWP-22-24 (CR 25-088) relating to chs. NR 1 and 45, and minor changes to DNR property management regulations (the 2025 property management housekeeping rule) to address technical difficulties that occurred during the first hearing on Jan. 12, 2026. Based on public comments received during the initial comment period from Dec. 8, 2025, to Jan. 12, 2026, the department intends to remove sections 4 and 6 (climbing-related definitions) of the rule from the final version that will go to the Natural Resources Board for consideration. The department intends to address sections 4 and 6 of the current rule and climbing provisions during a future rulemaking effort.
