If you won’t take action, post the legal description and one of the more proactive folks on here will gladly call it in I bet
He drives all over it too. I’m guessing they frown on that shit too
baha you can complain on the internet for days but a simple phone call is too much. Incredible
There is no feeding allowed on State land. If you are sure it's happening on state land one simple call to the Trust Lands Dept. would put a stop to that in a hurry. One of my friends jumped me this fall complaining about some state land he wanted to hunt on being posted with no livestock on it. He gave me the legal description and he was right that was state land but when he described the land to me I knew something was wrong because I had just inspected that unit a couple of years ago and there were no tree rows on it. Turns out he didn't read the PLOTS book correctly and he was looking at the wrong land on the map. It was private land next to the state land. He was a bit embarrassed. I've inspected most of the state land in Morton, Grant and Sioux Counties in the last 5 years and only found one case of cattle being fed on state land recently and that ended immediately when I reported it. I also found a couple of cases where hay was being stacked and stored on state land and that also ended. Just contact the Dept. and they will take action.
From the Dept. of Trust Lands web site:
3. PROHIBITED USES. The land shall only be used for the purposes set forth above. LESSEE may not cultivate additional acreage or change the location of fields. Other prohibited uses include, but are not limited to, equipment storage; hay storage; trash dumping; rock dumping; feedlots; feeding; draining water on or off the land; mining scoria, gravel, clay, or any other minerals; cutting wood; or allowing others to do the same unless authorized in writing by LESSOR.
Just curious, why would you call and bitch and make yourself look like an ass? Be pretty easy to call the ones that ACTUALLY know the situation and could give you answers to your questions WITHOUT bitching about it ? Not logical enough I suppose? :;:huhYa call and bitch when I could look like a total dumb ass lol. Maybe you do that but most people ask questions and find out the most info you can before you make yourself look like an ass.
My original post was asking about the regulations on it because I didn’t know. The more this discussion went on the more info I found out. So Monday I’ll make a call. This land is basically at a dead end of some lease roads so nobody ever goes back there so I’m sure he has always gotten away with it.
This wouldn't fall under a Wardens duty anyway. More like the sherriff's.Don’t worry about such things the wardens are only issuing tickets if you forget your orange ... wardens don’t care about public land they are busy patrolling certain private lands.
