I'm pretty sure the policy was codified in the WAC. Tending to agree with Rivrguy's conclusion that WDFW struggling to follow the rules. Probably the result of getting beat up by the Tribes and then kneecapped by the Governor, who is bought and paid for by the Tribes...

Can't disagree with that....

All Commission Policies are "guidance'' and not legally binding on WDFW.

It's interesting how the Commission can set a Policy that is "guidance" but no teeth for WDFW but the Agency can set Policy for staff that has consequences.

I get your point but in reality a failure to adhere to Commission policy (Director) can have repercussions (teeth) should the Commission see fit to bare them.

Yeah, the Commission could gum the Director to death.

Not anywhere near like in the corporate world but they hire and fire.....Ridgefield was former Director Unsworth's Waterloo.
