I just received this and thought I would share with you outdoor enthusiasts!
Thank you for contacting the Missouri Department of Conservation.
Last month the Conservation Commission approved a change to the designation of the “CWD Management Zone” to include counties within 10-miles of any CWD detection (instead of 25 miles). They also approved removing Cole and Moniteau counties from the CWD Management Zone because there have been no additional positives since the single detection confirmed in March 2014. The county list and maps will be in the 2019 Fall Deer & Turkey Hunting Regulations booklet, which should be available on the Department’s website in July. There will also be a press release soon. Feeding and minerals will be allowed effective July 1 in counties that are being removed from the CWD Management Zone. Feeding and minerals will continue to be prohibited in all CWD Management Zone counties.
Following is the list of 2019 CWD Management Zone counties:
Adair, Barry, Cedar, Chariton, Christian, Crawford, Franklin, Gasconade, Hickory, Howell, Jefferson, Knox, Linn, Macon, Mercer, Oregon, Ozark, Perry, Polk, Putnam, St. Charles, St. Clair, St. Francois, Ste. Genevieve, Stone, Sullivan, Taney, Warren, and Washington
If you have additional questions, you may contact me direct at the number below.
