Todd you are correct. You can't sue until the Commission denies your request. No reason to sue, if the Commission accepts there request

But if I was a betting man, I would bet that the Commission will wait to the last minute, and then formally deny the request. I was under the impression that Forks had already made a request to rescind the decision. Are you hearing different?

I know if it was me, I would assume that they are going to turn my request down, and I would be fully prepared to litigate the minute that I received their denial. It would be a good thing for all if the Commission rescinded it descision early, and address the issue when it was originally scheduled to do so. It's appears by all the testimony, that it wouldn't really do much for fish recovery this year anyway because its at the bottom of a five year decline that has always occurred in the end of these 5 year cycles, so why take the heat?
