The deadline to submit proposals to change how Alaska’s Fish Board and Board of Game advisory committees operate is approaching. Alaskans have by May 1 to submit proposals. Statewide, 84 advisory committees inform board decisions.<\/p>\n
Regulations up for change can be found in Alaska statute, 5 AAC Chapters 96 and 97, which includes the following topics: establishment and distribution of local fish and game advisory committees; advisory committee membership makeup and qualifications; uniform rules of operation for advisory committee meetings; advisory committee areas of jurisdiction for emergency closures; procedures for developing fish and game regulations and emergency petition and subsistence proposal policies.<\/p>\n
The joint board last met in October 2013 to make regulatory adjustments to this program. Proposals received by the May 1 deadline will be considered by the joint board at its meeting scheduled for March 21-25, 2019 in Anchorage.<\/p>\n
Proposals may be submitted online or by mail or fax at:<\/p>\n
