Richmond County resident Monty R. Crump has been elected for another term as chairman of the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission Board after leading the body for the past two years.

Greensboro resident Mark Craig will replace Thomas L. Fonville as vice chairman.

Gov. Roy Cooper appointed Crump to a six-year term as District 6 commissioner in 2017 and reappointed him to a new term in April. Craig is an at-large appointee of Senate President Pro Tempore Phil Berger and has been on the Commission since 2015.

The 19-member commission is responsible for establishing polices and regulations governing hunting, fishing, trapping, boating and lands management in North Carolina.
