In the much used expression " full disclosure " I will say that CM was a mentor and advisor on Chehalis and Hump issues ( along with Paul Seidel, Randy Aho, Jim Scott, & Larry Peck ) as we worked jointly on basin issues so .............

CM do you remember the cost that Paul & Randy came up with for the intake? For some reason the number 250K sticks out but I will look in the old minutes to see if it is there. Also could not the source be non dedicated or general fund monies in the states construction budget? If not could you identify the sources WDF&W use for large construction upgrades and the state agencies in general use.

Also those working this issue need to contact Rep. Blake to get his support. Next the Senator and Rep whose districts the hatchery is in and begin to make your case.
