Just to clarify - the sports community is not an agency, therefore they would have no seat at the table. Their interest should have been represented by WDFW. I also want to clarify that Salmo g was long gone from the FTC when decisions about Cowlitz hatchery programming were finally made.



Sorry but the sports community could have sign on to the settlement agreement,but wasn't buying the garbage TP was selling. The guides signed on ,but found out there half vote wasn't going to get them anything so they drop out. One of the point is he was there keeping the public out of FTC meeting. Funny his name show up on meeting minutes for sometime after the 2002 signing.
