JoJo, I think the idea of "bottom up" decisions is that the grass roots locals identify the issues they consider most detrimental to the fish.
These issues are then escalated and decisions, in concert with national CCA, are made for the benefit of the resource.

It would seem both short-sighted and self-destructive for national CCA to allow any branch to indulge in a resource grab (re-allocation, whatever).

I'd suggest waiting to see the "official" stance and proposals once PNW CCA decides on a course of action. Sure, some members would love a resource grab.

Would you like to name a group, local or national, that doesn't have members who feel that way?
