Thank you for the update. A few opinions;
1. Interesting response. The enforcement problem remains however. PBH's proposal does have merit. Perhaps ongoing enforcement headaches at the 'Berry will change opinion eventually.
2. That sounds good. It will be interesting to see what they find in their studies.
3. The aggravating part of hearing about a funding shortfall in getting these studies done is that the Legislative session is already OVER! If fishing groups had known that we needed to pressure the legislature for funding on this, we could have done so 8-12 weeks ago. The state did have a surplus, and we likely could have gotten a few crumbs to finish these studies. I feel the DWR dropped the ball on this in not lobbying for the money in the legislative session, and in not letting us know so we could pressure our representatives AT THE RIGHT TIME.
4. Did the DWR people say if there was anything we the people could do to help the division succeed in getting the property?
5. Good move.
