The Bylaws are rules enacted by the ATVAM membership to provide a framework for the operation and management of the organization. The proposed amendments will be voted on by ATVAM members at the annual convention (Ride & Rally), in Crane Lake, Minnesota, during the General Membership Meeting on Saturday, September 21, 2019. A copy of the amendments to the Bylaws appeared in the August/September issue of Minnesota OffRoad magazine. They are also available on the ATVAM website, on the Strategic Plan page, at this link: http://www.atvam.org/Strategic_Plan.html. Please review the amendments prior to the scheduled vote at Ride & Rally. Thanks! 17.5 Mile Section of Taconite State Trail Opens to ATVs (Creates great trail connections) An Overview of this trail project by Joe Majerus, Parks and Trails Area Supervisor This project opens 17.5 miles of the Taconite State Trail to ATVs (Class 1 and 2) and OHMs, creating a valuable trail connection from the Big Aspen trails in the Britt/Virginia area to Side Lake and other communities to the west. The western terminus of the project connects through county and forest roads to the Chisholm Grant-in-Aid ATV trail, and the eastern terminus connects to county and forest roads as well as to the ongoing Quad Cities ATV Club trail development project. The project was made possible through partnerships with the US Forest Service, The Quad Cities and Northern Traxx ATV clubs, and State Forestry. Joe Majerus Area Supervisor | Division of Parks and Trails Minnesota Department of Natural Resources 650 Hwy 169, Tower, MN 55790 Phone: 218-300-7842 Email: [email protected] New Bridge Trail Connects Iron Range Cities, Will Boost Ridership & Tourism From the Iron Range Resources And Rehabilitation Newsletter A new ATV trail connector opened last week that connects the cities of Virginia, Eveleth and Gilbert accessing the Tom Rukavina Memorial Bridge on Highway 53. The connector is 550 feet of trail and provides a crucial link to the Iron Range Off-Highway Vehicle State Recreation Area in Gilbert. "With this key trail connection and the completion of other area trail systems in the region, we hope to see a measurable increase in ATVs at area hotels, resorts and campgrounds," said Beth Pierce, Iron Range Tourism director. In anticipation of opening a new expansion in 2020 that will double the existing OHV park's size, the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) completed substantial work in the park this year. In 2018 more than 5,000 machines visited the park between May and October. Pierce believes this number could dramatically increase with the new trail connector along the bridge. According to Pierce, trail development around the state has shown that the ATV market is recognized as enthusiastic trail explorers who are able and willing to spend money in communities. They are likely to be repeat visitors in areas where they enjoy established trail systems. Pierce said that the region's campgrounds and lodging properties can attest to increased ATV traffic in recent years with the statewide growth of the sport. There are an estimated 268,000 registered ATVs in Minnesota. Iron Range Resources & Rehabilitation provided a Regional Trails grant which helped pay for construction, signage and a culvert for the new connector. Other project partners included Minnesota DNR, the city of Virginia, Iron Range Tourism Bureau and Quad Cities ATV Club. "Trails can have important economic impacts to a rural region," said Mark Phillips, Iron Range Resources & Rehabilitation commissioner. "They attract tourism spending and auxiliary startup businesses such as rental and repair shops. Trails can also be a business recruiting tool for health care and other large industries." =========================================================== ====== This was an awesome partnership of many groups, agencies and elected officials. A few more details from Beth Pierce, Iron Range Tourism Bureau: "The cities of Virginia, Eveleth and Gilbert are now connected! The trail was made possible with City of Virginia support (Mayor Larry Cuffe is shown), a grant from the Iron Range Resources (commissioner Mark Phillips is shown) , and support of our legislators, particularly Rep Dave Lislegard, DFL-Aurora, Sen Dave Tomassoni, DFL- Chisholm, and Rep. Rob Ecklund, DFL-I-Falls. Snowbirds Heading To AZ Need Nonresident OHV Decal Out-of-state residents wishing to legally ride their off-highway vehicle and support OHV trail maintenance, education and law enforcement efforts in Arizona can purchase a nonresident OHV decal beginning Sunday, Sept. 1. The new decal was supported and pushed by the OHV riding community during the 2019 legislative session and was signed into law by Gov. Doug Ducey. The law requires nonresident OHV owners to purchase a decal to operate the machines within the state. All OHVs designed by the manufacturer primarily for use over unimproved terrain and that weigh 2,500 pounds or less are required by law to display a valid OHV decal to operate on public and state trust lands. This includes "street legal" OHVs that meet these two requirements. Before the law was passed, nonresident OHV owners could ride their machines within the state for up to 30 days only if their state had a similar in-state resident decal program. There is no longer a grace period allowing nonresidents to operate without an Arizona decal and owners are now required to purchase a decal before operating their machines within the state. Those caught riding without a current decal can be fined. Both resident and nonresident OHV decals cost $25 (plus a processing fee) and are good for one year from the purchase date. While the resident OHV decal can be purchased at any Arizona Department of Transportation Motor Vehicle Division office or at www.servicearizona.com, the nonresident OHV decal can only be purchased online through an Arizona Game and Fish Department portal account, which can be created at www.azgfd.gov by clicking "My Account." After registering for a new account, users should click on "view details" under My AZGFD Dashboard to purchase the nonresident OHV decal.

    DATE: March 20, 2018 TO: Board of Water and Soil Resources’ Members, Advisors, and Staff FROM: John Jaschke, Executive Director SUBJECT: BWSR Board Meeting Notice – March 28, 2018 The Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR) will meet on Wednesday, March 28, 2018, beginning at 9:00 a.m. The meeting will be held in the lower level Board Room, at 520 Lafayette Road, Saint Paul. Parking is available in the lot directly in front of the building (see hooded parking area). The following information pertains to agenda items: COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATIONS Water Management and Strategic Planning Committee One Watershed, One Plan Operating Procedures and Plan Content Requirements – The One Watershed, One Plan Operating Procedures and Plan Content Requirements are the two policy documents that describe program requirements according to Minnesota Statutes §103B.801. These documents, which were based on policies for the pilot program (developed in 2014), were updated in 2016 when the program was formally established. Since that time, BWSR’s Water Planning Program Team has identified a need to improve the organization and clarity of these documents, along with minor changes to policy elements. The team recommends re-formatting both documents with the new State of Minnesota logo and style. For both documents, the majority of non-policy information (background, context, and optional items) have been removed. DECISION Other changes include: • Policy o High level summary of changes (see the last page of each document for more detail) • Operating Procedures o Removed automatic exemption for LGUs with less than 5% of their area in the planning boundary o Added requirements for sharing public comments during the plan review and approval process • Plan Content Requirements o Land and Water Resources Inventory changed to Narrative; added requirement for discussion of watershed context o Fairly extensive wording changes in Plan Administration and Implementation Programs sections resulting in minor changes to policy elements.

  • Kettle River, Minnesota
    Kettle River, Minnesota 1. The region surrounding the river: a. The Kettle River is located in east-central Minnesota. The river has its headwaters in Carlton County and flows generally north-south, passing through Pine County and into the St. Croix River. The basin has a long history of faults and glacial activity. The bedrock formations are of pre-Cambrian metamorphic and volcanic rock. This layer is covered by Cambrian sandstone and unconsolidated glacial till. Outcroppings of sandstone and pre-Cambrian lava are frequent. The area is ragged and rolling with dramatic local relief. The area has gone through a dramatic ecological change since the logging days when the white pine was the dominant vegetation. Today the region has a varied pattern of red pine, spruce, white pine, white birch maple, oak, aspen, and basswood. Major transportation lines in the area include Interstate 35 running north-south through the basin and Minnesota 23 running northeast- southwest through the basin. Minnesota 48 crosses the river east-west just east of Hinckley, Minnesota, and Minnesota Route 65 runs north-south about 25 miles west of the river. Land use in the basin is limited to agriculture and timber production. The Mhmeapolis-St. Paul area to the south supports heavy industry and manufacturing. b. Population within a 50-mile radius was estimated at 150, 700 in 1970. The Duluth, Minnesota/Superior, Wisconsin, metropolitan area lies just outside the 50-mile radius and had an additional 132, 800 persons in 1970. c. Numerous state forests are found in this part of Minnesota. They are Chengwatona State Forest, DAR State Forest, General C.

Established in 1857, Mille Lacs County has a total land area of 572 square miles. Of that land area, approximately 30% is occupied by open water (lakes and rivers). The federal government holds 0.56% in trust for the Mille Lacs Band of Ojibwe, and state-owned lands make up 10.43 % of the land area. The county is home to a large portion of Mille Lacs Lake, as well as the headwaters of the Rum River, which flow through Lakes Ogechie, Shakopee, and Onamia before making its way to the Mississippi River in Anoka County. Mille Lacs County is relatively flat, and is characterized by clay-loam soils which can be saturated for most of the year. Wetland basins (specifically Types 1 and 2) are predominant, as are forested wetlands Types 7 and 8. Forest management, agriculture, and tourism are the main industries in the county, followed by government and health care sectors. Figure 1.1: Mille Lacs County The county has a population of 26,097 (2010). The county seat is located in the City of Milaca, and is situated near the intersection of State Highway 23 and U.S.

State Forest Recreation Areas Minnesota's 56 state forests contain over 3.2 million acres of state owned lands which are administered by the Department of Natural Resources, Division of Forestry. State forest lands are managed to produce timber and other forest crops, provide outdoor recreation, protect watershed, and perpetuate rare and distinctive species of flora and fauna. State forests are multiple use areas that are managed to provide a sustained yield of renewable resources, while maintaining or improving the quality of the forest. Minnesota's state forests provide unlimited opportunities for outdoor recreationists to pursue a variety of outdoor activities. Berry picking, mushroom hunting, wildflower identification, nature photography and hunting are just a few of the unstructured outdoor activities which can be accommodated in state forests. For people who prefer a more structured form of recreation, Minnesota's state forests contain over 50 campgrounds, most located on lakes or canoe routes. State forest campgrounds are of the primitive type designed to furnish only the basic needs of individuals who camp for the enjoyment of the outdoors. Each campsite consists of a cleared area, fireplace and table. In addition, pit toilets, garbage cans and drinking water may be provided.
