A bit of distrust of Government is, in my experience, a healthy thing. But what we have going on right now with WDFW is absurd and the Commission is failing in its obligation which is truly unfortunate because I still believe it is a better structure than the former one with policies at the whim of politicians.

As for the Skok what the State received was an opinion from the BIA's legal team. It is not a court order nor other enforceable legal action to which the State could formally contest. So what to do? Frankly, there is no incentive for the tribe to agree - same as for the PNP ramp. Yes, that pesky multi-million dollar boat launch without a ramp. I hope I am not the only one seeing a pattern.
