I will leave the name calling and personal attacks to other as you don't know me or my fishing practices just as I don't know you or yours.

So what I am hearing is that you support law breaking by the WDFW? How long does the department have to comply with the law? This has really been out there since 2002. 12 years seem like enough time but we could just use the 2007 date so 7 years. How do you go about working with agencies that only respond to lawsuits? It would be far cheaper for the wdfw to just follow the law then they wouldn't have these law suits. Laws could be changed to fit your narrative and if that happens then the wdfw would be in compliance so help make that happen that no one needs permits to impact systems. But then be careful what you wish for as that would apply to logging, polluters, etc. We have laws for a reason. They have had ample time to make changes (some they have and good for them) and at least follow the law.
