How do locationless caches fall into the DNR policy?

How do locationless caches fall into the DNR policy?
I have found that even when I place an Earthcache on DNR property the land manager wants to be notified with the “DNR Notification form.” They tell me that they want to know what is going on on their land.
New Virtual and Earthcaches require a DNR permit, but what about Locationless.
I’ve seen lots and lots of people getting their picture taken in front of State Park signs (or footbridges, or waterfalls, or lakes, or…). I thought that’d be a good locationless cache to post.
But, how does the DNR Caching policy reflect this? I see nothing on their website about Locationless Caches.

Weren’t locationless caches outlawed by GC a few years ago?
“Locationless (Reverse) Cache
Locationless caches could be considered the opposite of a traditional cache. Instead of finding a hidden container, you are given a task to locate a specific object and log its coordinates. A scavenger hunt of sorts, it involves collecting waypoints of various objects around the world.Locationless caches have evolved into Waymarking. Waymark categories are similar to how locationless caches were listed on geocaching.com, but you can now search for the locations in each category.”
I was thinking of Navicaching or Terracaching, but I guess Waymarking would fall into this discussion as well.
