KDWP operates through five divisions—Executive Services, Administrative Services, Fisheries and Wildlife, Law Enforcement, and Parks—and employs approximately 460 full-time staff. The department is headquartered in Topeka, Kansas, at 1020 South Kansas, Room 200, Topeka 66612, United States, and maintains a website at https://ksoutdoors.com. A secretary appointed by the Governor leads KDWP, and a seven-member bipartisan commission, also appointed by the Governor, advises the secretary and approves regulations related to outdoor recreation and fish and wildlife resources. KDWP participates in intergovernmental partnerships, including a recent agreement with the Oregon State Marine Board to support joint park and outdoor recreation activities.
