Wisconsin Natural Resources BoardThe Wisconsin Natural Resources Board (NRB or Board) sets policy for the Department of Natural Resources and exercises authority and responsibility in accordance with governing state statutes. Chapter 15 of the Wisconsin Statutes delineates the formal duties of the seven-member board. Board Members are appointed by the Governor with the advice and consent of the State Senate. Three members each must be selected from the northern and southern portions of the state and one member serves at large. Terms expire on May 1. The Board meets on the fourth Wednesday of each month except for July and November. Board meetings are held at the DNR Building in Madison from November through April and at locations throughout the state from May through October. Board meeting dates and locations are listed in the Natural Resources Board Calendar. Meeting agendas are posted two weeks prior to each meeting. Briefs of action, a summary of motions made and votes taken at each Board meeting, are usually posted within a week after the Board meeting. Meeting minutes are posted following Board approval. The Board accepts citizen participation and public appearances at its meetings in accordance with published guidelines.
