rossman Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 I sent an e-mail concerning my thoughts on the 2005 deer hunting proposals, e-mail read as follows: Thank you for sharing your views regarding the deer season restructuring proposal for the 2005 season. We plan to conduct a structured public outreach effort in early February. This effort will include public meetings similar in nature to the 2002 State of the Deer Herd program and will provide additional opportunities to provide input and discussion. The schedule of the meetings will be posted on our website by the end of January. It is our intention to implement changes to NYS’s deer management program that will make full use of deer hunting as the most primary tool for controlling deer numbers on a statewide scale. In the process of doing so, it is our desire to provide equitable access to the deer resource for all hunters, while concurrently enhancing and expanding overall recreational opportunities. Clearly compromises will need to occur in some instances, and some long standing traditions may change as a result. However it is our hope that by doing so that we will be able to provide a balance of opportunities that will carry over to the next generation of NY deer hunters. By doing so, the legacy of deer hunters and deer hunting will be maintained and will continue to provide a valuable and important service for all of the citizens of NY. The regulations to enact changes to the 2005 Big game hunting Season will be formally proposed early in 2005 so that changes can be implemented in time for the autumn of 2005. This regulatory process also includes a 45 day public comment period during which formal reaction to the proposed regulations can be registered with the Department. The DEC is obligated by law to respond to the comments received as a part of this regulatory process before adopting a regulation. Thanks again for sharing your views and opinions. end of e - mail!!!! Sounds to me that they won't care about making changes, even if it means pissing some people off!!!!

rossman Posted January 12, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 Re: Reply from NY DEC concerning 05\' proposals! Are the brochures already printed? It's not legal for them to make changes without listening to public opinion, I thought. All it comes down to is, we have a bunch of idiots running things. And nothing can change it. It's like a form of communism. They do what they want with a total disreguard for public opinion!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
