Appointees are expected to attend quarterly meetings and actively participate in matters that affect the Commission, Keweenaw NHP, and the Keweenaw Heritage Sites as well as other partners throughout the Copper Country. Commission members serve without compensation; however, travel expenses associated with Commission activities may be reimbursed in accordance with federal travel regulations.
