The Washington
State Senate Natural Resources & Parks Committee will hold a hearing next Tuesday, July 29, 2014 at 10:00AM to
discuss our recent Puget Sound steelhead hatchery litigation and
settlement. The hearing was called by the committee chair, Senator Kirk Pearson
(R - Monroe) and Wild Fish Conservancy was invited to provide our perspective.
The hearing will also include presentations from WDFW, Puget Sound Tribes, NOAA
Fisheries, recreational fishers, and fishing businesses. At his hearing there
may be NO other invited speakers voicing support for wild steelhead, but there
will be time for public input. Would it be
possible for you to spread the word about the hearing to your group?
This is a great opportunity for others to tell the Committee that they support
rivers managed for wild fish, not hatchery fish.
