XML FeedsChange to 2010 MDNR Tournament Permit Procces Made

For various reasons, the tournament permit process is in a little flux right now with the MDNR considering changes. As of November 2, 2009 for the 2010 season, DO NOT SEND ANY MONEY UNLESS your event will have 50 boats (vehical/trailers) or greater. If you have 50 boats or more, the permit fee will be $50 for weekdays and $100 for Saturday or Sunday.
These are the only tournament fees the MDNR will be collecting as of now for the 2010 season. More information should be available over the next few weeks as the present system is being re-evaluated. There may be delays caused by the upcoming January merger between the MDNR and MDEQ into the new MDNRE though.
The MDNR still asks that you notify each local office of all your tournament events at MDNR public access sites so other groups can see if someone is already noted on a site on a specific day. This is not a guaranty at this time but has helped minimize conflicts and crowding the previous two seasons. Use the form PR-1138 at www.michigan.gov/dnrlanduse to notify the appropriate local office. You can search by county on this web page by clicking the Map of Contact Information link.
You can also identify the correct local office mailing address by checking the name of the site on www.mcgi.state.mi.us/mrbis - a useful resource for public access sites, directions and online lake maps.
Motor vehicle permits are still required at MDNR public access sites with an attendant on duty or a collection post, and at MDNR state parks. There is legislation out that would remove the need for state park and boating access permits. Find out more at Citizens for Michigan State Parks on the Recreation Passport Proposal.
