Things have not been real clear and transparent on this whole front. I wonder what the legal precedent(s) here as to possibly decimating a fishery. It is my understanding that while a private entity can own land that wildlife is on and control access to hunt and fish, the state 'owns' the wildlife and has right to set limits on its use and harvest. So, if DWR approved the treatment are they liable to bring the fishery back or ...... On the other hand, was the treatment done without DWR apporval is the reservoir owners liable to replace a public resource..... Just throwing thoughts out, while hoping it not a doomsday scenario.
