Bill Sladyk Wildlife Management Area WMA is an approximate 9,040-acre parcel of land owned and managed by the Vermont Fish and Wildlife Department. The WMA is located 8 miles north of Island Pond on VT Route 114 and ranges from Norton Pond, northwest to the Canadian Border just north of Holland Pond. The management goals of this property are to protect and enhance the many different habitat types present

In 1983 the WMA name was changed from the Hurricane Brook WMA to the Bill Sladyk WMA in memory of State Wildlife Forester William F. Sladyk. The present day landholdings of the WMA were acquired from 1959 to 1998 using several different funding mechanisms. The Department purchased the largest tracts in 1959 using monies from the sale of hunting and fishing licenses. It was not until 1970 however that the Department finally purchased the timber rights to the property from the Fillemore Lumber Company of Stanstead, Quebec.

The latest addition to the WMA came in 1998 when the Department purchased 115 acres surrounding the southern end of Holland Pond. This purchase was made using funds from the Federal Aid in Wildlife Restoration Act, known as the Pittman-Robertson Program. This program is funded by a manufacturer's excise tax on rifles, shotguns, ammunition, and archery equipment. This addition allows for the protection of 10,000 feet of undeveloped shoreline around Holland Pond.
