The S.C. Department of Natural Resources (SCDNR), in coordination with Clemson University, is currently evaluating options for Sunday hunting on Wildlife Management Areas (WMAs) in South Carolina.

Anyone with comments or opinions about Sunday hunting on WMAs is encouraged to participate in a statewide survey and/or attend a public listening session in July 2021.

The survey will allow SCDNR to assess the public opinions and attitudes towards the potential of opening WMAs to Sunday hunting.

The survey must be completed in one session and should take no longer than 10-12-minutes. The survey will be available until July 28, 2021 at 5 p.m.

Additionally, there will be a series of four public meetings held in July across the state to discuss the subject of Sunday hunting. All public meetings will begin at 6 p.m.
