The DNR held a public meeting at the Marquette Township Hall Thursday to discuss its 10-year State Forest Management Plan.  Some key changes for this new plan include a larger focus on climate change-based strategies, focusing more on long-term sustainability and combining four plans into one comprehensive plan.  This plan will help guide the annual management that occurs across the state on the 4 million acres of state forest.
