COMMITTEE
REPORTS:
YOUTH: Youth Director LARRY
RAGANIT was not present and did not report
CONSERVATION: Conservation Officer STEVE
BURK reported:
¨
Paddock
is going to be drained and has been opened up for fish salvage by IDFG. A fish salvage by the Federation was
discussed, but it would be too difficult to try and capture any fish due to
shallow water, deep mud and lack of useable boat ramps. Transporting fish would be difficult as
well.
¨
The
Irrigation District will be draining the Nampa canal at Lake Lowell on Sept.
23. There are always fish trapped in
the canal that die when it dries up.
After a long discussion, the Federation decided to try and salvage these
fish and put them back into Lake Lowell.
Jeff Dillon from IDFG said that he would give us a permit to do this and
try to provide nets to capture the fish. The plan is to meet at the dam around 2:00 p.m. on Monday Sept.
23.

DIRECTOR:

alternate.
COMMUNICATION: Communication Officer J.C.
WORTHEN reported:

The revised State Team Code of Conduct and Qualifier
