Comments

ATTENTION: Sometime during the week of Sept. 30 - Oct. 6, the trailer mounted irrigation engine was stolen from the pump site at the Black Vermillion Marsh. This was a black 5th wheel trailer with a 300 gallon black diesel tank on the front and a red Case diesel engine on the back. If you have any information that could lead to the recovery of this stolen property, please contact the Marshall County Sheriff's Office at (785)562-3141 or the KDWPT office at (785)363-7316.

A permit/survey is required to hunt the Black Vermillion and Olsburg marshes and can be found at the parking lots adjacent to each marsh. Please complete this survey. The data collected from this permit/survey supplies the Manager with valuable comments and harvest information to better manage the area.
