We will look into buying our own equipment for next year. Motion passed.
-
Troy reported on a meeting regarding watershed with fish and wildlife representatives. They have some willingness to let us get the hatchery operational again. Their inspection turned up three observations: The check dam that provides water to the hatchery is impeding the Coho fish runs up Boxler creek. They recommended areas where two trees be dropped into the creek to provide fish habitat. An abandoned road up the creek that provides access to some lots is no longer passable, and the culverts plug up each year. Troy will explore options to resolve the problem with the lot owners.
