2008 Court Ruling on Fish Stocking May Affect Local Fishing Industry By~Bill Reynolds

Posted by: Kim_Hamilton on 12/02/2008 08:33 AM
Arnold, CA...Hello fellow fisherpeople and outdoor sportsmen.

This letter comes to you as a result of a recent court ruling passed down just last week. I am sorry this is not a fishing report, instead a report of things to come that will affect hundreds, if not thousands of people including all of the businesses that are dependent on our fisheries up and down our Highway 4 corridor.

The DFG was sued over fish stocking programs it has engaged in for more than 100 years, claiming that no Environmental Impact Report (EIR) had been completed for the programs. The result of the case was a court order requiring DFG to complete an EIR. DFG is engaged in the years-long and multimillion dollar EIR process, now scheduled to be completed in...
