We are reminding you, a 2009 deer permit applicant via the internet, that you can apply for your 2010 deer permit beginning March 9 at www.dnr.state.il.us .

By applying online, you not only have confirmation of your application being submitted, but you also have saved funds in the deer program that would have been spent on postage/handling fees associated with paper applications. We here at IDNR are committed to be good stewards of this important dedicated funding.

To accommodate those without access to the internet, paper applications will still be available on our website and at select IDNR locations.

Thank you for applying online and we hope you encourage other hunters to do the same.
