Wis. DNR to evaluate test vehicle program
MADISON, Wis, (AP) — The Department of Natural Resources says it is preparing a report on the results of a test program on the use of lightweight utility vehicles on all-terrain vehicle trails and routes in five northern Wisconsin counties.
The two-year program ended Wednesday and the law that allowed it requires the DNR to submit a report to the Legislature by Jan. 1.
ATV administrator Gary Eddy says lightweight utility vehicles were allowed on trails in five counties — Florence, Sawyer, Marinette, Lincoln and Washburn — to evaluate how many were used and what effect they had on the trails.
The LUVs are also commonly referred to as "side by sides" and can weigh up to 1,900 pounds.
