Tug, you've left out the WDFW Commissioners who fired Director Unsworth and hired Director Susewind and who ostensibly provide guidance on policy matters to the Director for his implementation.

So, the question I have is whether AAG Grossman has been actively engaged with the Commission and whether the actions by WDFW personnel are consistent with recommendations by AAG Grossman as blessed by the Commission?

If the answers are YES then the Commission is a part of the problem and Salmo's rhetorical question needs to be seriously considered. If the answers are NO then it is incumbent upon the Commission to hit the RESET button and fulfill its responsibility and do so quickly. If they can not or will not step up then Salmo's question comes into play.

As of this morning there is still no agenda posted for the 14-15 June Commission meeting in Port Angeles: https://wdfw.wa.gov/about/commission/meetings/2019.

Part of the solution or part of the problem??

Crisis of confidence in the offing!!
