The Missouri Conservation Commission approved a pair of land changes impacting south-central Missouri during its September meeting.
In Texas County, the commission approved renaming the Summersville Towersite to the Gist Ranch Conservation Area. In Shannon County, commissioners approved a trade of 120 acres of the Rocky Creek Conservation Area for 116 acres, plus compensation, to serve as an addition to the Angeline Conservation Area.
Additionally, during the Sept. 11 session, the commission delayed action on proposed statewide rules regarding nonresident public land deer hunting permits and requirements for unstaffed shooting range and camping permits.
