Description: State Natural Areas (SNA) are formally designated sites devoted to scientific research, the teaching of conservation biology, and especially to the preservation of their natural values and genetic diversity for future generations. Protected are outstanding examples of native natural communities, significant geological formations, and archaeological sites. State Natural Areas represent the last vestiges of natural plant and animal communities that existed prior to European settlement. Designation is achieved through purchase, cooperative agreements, legal dedication (through Articles of Dedication), management plans such as DNR Master Plans or Feasibility Studies, and/or Memoranda of Understanding. Once secured by purchase or agreement, sites are formally "designated" as State Natural Areas, becoming part of the Natural Area System. Designation confers a significant level of protection as guaranteed by DNR Administrative Rules, Management Plans, and M.O.U.s in compliance with state statutes. A higher level of protection is provided by Articles of Dedication, a kind of conservation easement, which provides the strongest long-term legal protection for land in the state. Legally "dedicated" sites are protected in perpetuity for natural area use and may not be taken for other functions without finding of urgent and greater public need by the governor and the legislature.
