The following is a letter being sent today from Dean Hanson, Mille Lacs Fishery Advisory Committee to DNR Commissioner Tom Landwehr. It is very troubling to say the least. Please read his letter and see my comments below.
Doug Meyenburg
Dean Hanson's Letter
Dear Commissioner Landwehr,
We recently acquired a copy of an agreement called "Consensus: Mille Lacs Fishery Harvest Plan, 2017-2020", dated March 31, 2017 between the DNR, GLIFWIC, the Mille Lacs Band of Ojibwe and the Fond du Lac Band of Lake Superior Chippewa (copy attached).
We were shocked to say the least. No one from the DNR had ever spoken to MLFAC about this agreement, either before or after its signing. This agreement was never disclosed to the public at any time. Why would the DNR secretly negotiate a settlement like this without disclosing it to anyone? This is exactly the type of thing, which reinforces our position that more transparency is needed in connection with DNR and Band discussions and negotiations. It is an example of why we have requested participation of some kind in FTC meetings.

This at least makes me feel like we're not being singled out for shit treatment on the deer front.

Is it a "consensus" if they didn't involve all parties? Even the title is jacked up.

DNR could give 2 shits about any 'concensus'

I saw something on FB about some sort of back room deal that took place as well. I wasn't familiar with all the terms the guy was using but apparently too many fish where harvested and there was some sort of dispute (just short of going to court) and the MN DNR agreed to some terms and tried to essentially sweep it under the rug from the public eye and there was obviously some pissed off people about it. I didn't say anything because I wasn't and still am not 100% certain who was all involved and the like, but it sounded like more shady shit MN DNR was up to that you guys have bitched about in the past. DNR wants people to trust them yet they demonstrate exactly why we shouldn't!
