Thanks for posting that info. This proposed permit is absolutely something we should get behind both as individuals and as groups as it will provide much more latitude in controlling the numbers of double crested cormorants to the benefit of outbound smolt - both ESA and hatchery.

Comments need to be submitted by 20 July 2020 and can be accomplished electronically using that link. Upon opening the link there are several icons on the left side. The second one down (single comment cloud) is for submittal of comments while the third (double comment clouds) is for viewing comments already submitted. Those make for some interesting reading.

Anyway, please at least read the summary and submit your (full support) comments. As a hint there is quite a bit of emphasis in that Federal Register posting on reducing conflict with ESA listed species.........
