Kulm Wetland Management District

Kulm Wetland Management District (WMD) in south-central North Dakota was established in 1971. Located in the heart of the Prairie Pothole Region, the District provides secure breeding, nesting, and brood rearing areas for many species of waterfowl and other migratory birds. The District currently manages 201 Waterfowl Production Areas (WPAs) (45,683 acres), three easement and small fee National Wildlife Refuges, and 120,000 acres of wetland and grassland easements.

The Kulm WMD headquarters is located in the small town of Kulm, North Dakota. From Jamestown, on Interstate 94, Kulm is 38 miles south on U.S. Highway 281. At Edgeley, turn west on North Dakota Highway 13 for 15 miles. At the junction of North Dakota Highway 13 and North Dakota Highway 56, continue south about 2/3 of a mile into Kulm. Signs with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service emblem will direct you to the Kulm WMD office.
