John Evans, Acting HEC Manager

The Department of Natural Resources Heavy Equipment Crew is a self-contained unit under the direction of the Division of Engineering that works on small earth-related projects at DNR sites, with its primary emphasis on waterfowl projects. The crew was initially sponsored by waterfowl groups that saw the Department's need to react to waterfowl levee repairs and new developments. Over the years, the Heavy Equipment Crew (HEC) has been very cost effective, and able to react to immediate needs when they arose.
