Northern Lower Peninsula (NLP) Ecoregion Maps Northern Lower Peninsula Ecoregion

The NLP Ecoteam is committed to the fair and responsible management of resources in the Northern Lower Peninsula. This incorporates the ecological, social and economic impact of resource management decisions into the DNR's decision making process. It also involves creating opportunities for citizens and stakeholders in the region to communicate to the DNR what they value and why, and to create true partnerships with private land owners and other agencies that will result in "best practice" decision making.

The topics below give an overview of the ecosystem attributes and planning processes in the NLP. After reviewing each of the topics, please take the opportunity to visit the last link
