Welcome to the Council’s Fish and Wildlife Newsletter. You are receiving this because you are engaged in the Council’s work and we want to keep you informed throughout our current program amendment process.
At the August Council meeting, the Council members agreed to extend the recommendations period by 90 days based on several extension requests from the fish and wildlife managers. The Council will now be accepting recommendations to amend the Program until 5pm on December 13, 2018.
We’ll send regular updates and ways you can participate in the process. In these emails you will find news relating to fish and wildlife, the status of the amendment process, topics of interest, and upcoming meetings.
