In response to your questions
1) the escrow account - not knowing what paragraphes B, C & G require the PUD's to do I have no way of answering your question. However have an applicant putting funds in an escrow account to be used if they don't meet thier obligations seems purdent to me.

2) Having the anglers vote on issues. That would be a very cumbersome. There have been various angler preferences conducted over the years and not unexpectly anglers never unamiously agree on anything. Which is exactly my point - we anglers represent a wide range of opinions and ideas and rarely speak with a single voice. Perhaps the close there is to agreement is that WDFW doesn't have a clue but I'll bet there are even some WDFW supportors.
