Lineage:

Process step:
Edited 2006-2007 wolverine management unit boundaries to reflect changes approved by FWP Commission. These edits used existing landscape features including Streams, Highways and Hydrological Units.
Process date: 09/01/2008
Process step:
No changes in 2010 to districts.
Updated fields to be consistent with all hunting district layers.
