That would be interesting especially if NOF was being live streamed.

If WDFW were to submit and the tribes essentially boycott NOF resulting in no agreement would BIA (again) issue a permit? Would Commerce/NOAA/NMFS in response issue an interim permit to WDFW? How much pressure would our Congressional delegations put on all of the involved Federal agencies? Paradigm shift????
