The Wildlife Commission will meet in Port Angeles December 7/8. The agenda can be looked at by using the following link:

http://wdfw.wa.gov/com/dec0807.htm

A lot of the work will be on hunting and lands related issues. An item of interest will be the Statewide Steelhead Plan briefing (item #14) on Friday afternoon. There will also be a briefing on Columbia salmon plans.

This is a great opportunity for folks on the NOP to get a chance to see the Commission in action and also a chance for some public input if you want. Time for that is limited, but you won't get a better chance.

If you can make it to PA on Thursday and are interested in steelhead issues, the following session might be worth sitting in on.

December 7-8, 2007, Commission Meeting
Red Lion Hotel – Port Angeles
221 N Lincoln, Port Angeles, WA 98362
(360) 452-9215

NOTE: From 2-5:00 p.m. on Thursday, December 6, 2007, the Fish and Wildlife Commission’s two fish committees will meet with Department staff for a work session to discuss the status of the Department’s 21st Century Salmon and Steelhead Project. The meeting is open to the public; however, no public input will be accepted.

I wish I could make this meeting. Our government is supposed be to one of informed consent by the public. Clearly the fish processers carry more weight than the people.

We'll be paying the price in the long run.

maybe i'll drop by

Thanks for the heads up.Good luck,

I hear they want to prohibit shooting on WDFW land too. Why? isn't that one of the reasons it's for. Send comments here. commission@dfw.wa.gov
