New Jersey Fish & Wildlife Council and Committee Members
The members of the Fish and Wildlife Councils and Committees in New Jersey are unpaid volunteers who act in the best interest of the state's fish and wildlife resources on behalf of the public. The councils help create and finalize each year's hunting and fishing regulations and enable the professional and scientific management of our resources. The Governor, with the consent of the Senate, appoints each member.
See the page on Fish and Wildlife Councils and Committees for detailed information on the functions and roles of the various councils in managing our fish and wildlife resources.
