Illinois DNR Has Questions To Answer
April 11, 2007
A recent audit of the Illinois Department of Natural Resources showed that over 1,200 hunting permits were given away. Who they were given to remains unclear as the audit showed 15 permits went to ammunition company officials but no accounting of the others. What is also disturbing about this report is that it appears some of those permits were given away resulting in some applicants for lottery-style hunting permits not getting a chance.
Whether it will come out as to who received these free hunting permits remains to be seen but this audit brings to the forefront that IDNR needs to answer some questions and resolve this issue.
