HB2214 - SB6136 wolf bills ( Capital Press)

[KillBilly]

I know there are still 9,000 or so of you that haven't sent your Senator an e-mail supporting this Bill to require the State to delist by Regions instead of the current plan to delist statewide with all 3 regions having to meet the requirements...

At the very least everysingle member that lives in Eastern Washington should be sending this letter. Come on folks you are the ones that stand to gain the most by getting this Bill passed.

[Fishmasterdan]

Sent mine in but I dont feel its really neccasary to make a list and call everybody out on the mat. Thats just not the right thing to do.

Letters sent to all 8 Senators on the Committee = 272 total  & 34 to each Committee member.

Anybody else offended by the list? I will quit doing it...

[Special T]

I think the idea of the list is interesting...  I wonder if it increases the amount of participation or just puts the names up there that have...

Adoption of the wolf management plan already requires wolves in western Washington. Passage of this bill wouldn't change that, but require the state to follow the federal ESA and delist in the eastern 1/3 of the state by my understanding.

Thank you, for some reason I missed this.

The only other question I have is on the definition of "regional". The bill doesn't seem to define what this means. I live on the Peninsula and under the current plan wolves do not necessarily need to be present in the Northwest Coast region to be deemed recovered statewide. Do you think that this bill could require that wolves be present is every region?

Fishmaster, thank you for sending in your email. I appreciate your thoughts about the email campaign. We're not listing the people who don't participate, only those who do. Listing participants in a targeted campaign is a standard, effective practice which encourages those who haven't already, to participate. If someone feels bad that they're not on the list, maybe they'll do something about our declining hunting opportunities and take 2 minutes to send an email. But no one is calling anyone out on the mat. Killbilly is practicing good marketing. Thanks for your support.

  No , but in many cases people do act (as when I have posted elsewhere) but don't let you know back that they did, so that list is probably a lot bigger than we know. If it bothers anyone that they're not on it - they can let you know.

Case in point, there are several names on that list that PM'd me or e-mailed that didn't post on this thread. They seemed to want ther name posted.

Keep up the good work, anything you can do to solicite participation is worthy.

Stlheader, I believe Northwest Coast and Southwest are grouped together as a single "recovery region"

[KillBilly]

Feanix is correct:

4 in Eastern Washington
4 in Northern Cascades
4 in Southern Cascades/ Northwest Coast
3 anywhere in state
For 3 consecutive years (and the key word is successful Breeding Pairs (at least 2 pups that survive until the end of the year for 3 consecutive years))
or:

If 18 breeding pairs with required distribution are confirmed in any one year, the Department could consider delisting. The required distribution is: 4 in EasternWashington
4 in North Cascades
4 in Southern Cascades/ Northwest Coast
AND
6 anywhere in state ( these 6 BPs could all be in one region or 1 BP per region. but the basic distribution is still required

[Fishmasterdan]

Actually I am not offended at all, but I know a few people that would prefer to remain anonymous. You can put my name up there if it helps your cause.

I sent an email to all Energy, Natural Resources & Marine Waters Committee members requesting that they support SB6136.

Bearpaw is correct, we should write the senate committee members.

And many members have as you can on the list above and there could be many more that did not post that they did. It would have have been great if several thousand members had sent letters.
