Transfer sage grouse oversight to DNRC

This bill (LC 536) proposed transferring responsibility for managing sage grouse populations from its current agency to the Department of Natural Resources and Conservation (DNRC). If enacted, it would have directly affected state wildlife management practices and the agencies involved in conserving sage grouse habitat. The key provision was shifting oversight authority and management duties to DNRC. However, the bill was canceled in December 2024 and ultimately died in the legislative process on May 22, 2025, so it never became law.
