If you want to put in your two cents worth on upper Columbia salmon and steelhead fisheries, you will have a chance to do it at the North of Falcon public meeting. This is where WDFW staff will present their plans for the next year, and these meeting takes place during the process. The actual North of Falcon planning takes a few months to complete. When I was serving as a WDFW Commissioner I went to meetings on these fisheries all over the state, even a couple in California and Portland, Oregon. The North of Falcon meetings culminate with meetings with the Tribes. These meetings can be very contentious, and back then, as a Commissioner, I was allowed to sit in on them. The discussions take several days, and even into the evenings. The WDFW technical staff works closely with their tribal counterparts to make complicated adjustments as the meetings progress, and it is exhausting work. This is your chance to participate in the process. The meeting is on March 18th at the Technology Center in Wenatchee from 4 to 7 p.m. You can see a timeline of all the meetings and details of the Wenatchee meeting by Googling North of Falcon.
