Biographical History
Chapter 426, Laws of 1927, created the Conservation Department. From 1915-1927, a full-time Conservation Commission (WIHV86-A1162) had directly administered the state's conservation programs. Under the 1927 reorganization, the Commission became a part-time, policy-making body directing the work of the new Conservation Department which was given responsibility for the administration and implementation of the state's conservation programs. The Department was merged into the new Department of Natural Resources (WIHV85-A695) in 1967.
The Conservation Department was responsible for the protection, development, and use of the state's forest, fish, game, lakes, streams, plant life, and other outdoor resources.
