July 2025 NRC Preview

The July 2025 Michigan Natural Resources Commission (NRC) meeting will take place on Thursday, July 10 at Lansing Community College West Campus, beginning at 9:30 a.m.
The Director will present reports on the Status of Lake Whitefish in the Upper Great Lakes and Generally Accepted Operation Practices for Shooting Ranges
The Director must consider action items for the May 1,2025 Oil & Gas Lease Auction Results and Generally Accepted Operation Practices for Shooting Ranges.
There are no new orders for the NRC to consider.
At the June meeting, the NRC stated that the order to reopen the coyote season has been tabled for an August vote. Commissioners have the option to address the wildlife conservation order during the old business portion of any meeting.
Due to the commission’s ongoing lack of action, MUCC launched the Coyote Coalition—a petition supported by Michigan hunters, landowners, and concerned citizens who believe the commission is falling short of its legal duties and not properly representing the public. Sign the petition today to make your voice count.
MUCC reviews all land transactions exceeding 80 acres, of which there are three.
Land Transaction Case #20240185 is a purchase of 235 acres to expand public access within the Pigeon River Country State Forest.
Land Transaction Case #20240245 is a purchase of 160 acres to incorporate a mix of hardwood and conifer forests, including wetlands, into the Sault Ste. Marie Management Unit.
Land Transaction Case #20250019 is a purchase of 80 acres to expand state-managed forestlands in Winterfield Township, Clare County.
MUCC will be streaming the meeting on our Facebook and YouTube as technology allows.
