ODFW News Release
For Immediate Release
June 6, 2003
Commission chooses members for wolf advisory committee
The Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission voted unanimously Friday to appoint 14 people from throughout the state to represent diverse viewpoints and provide recommendations for the future management of wolves in Oregon. The Wolf Advisory Committee is expected to begin its work in July.
In April, the Commission adopted a planning process for the creation of a Wolf Management Plan, a planning goal statement and 10 operating principles. The appointed members will use the guidance from the Commission to begin its work. The committee will be assisted by a professional, independent facilitator. In addition, Craig Ely, ODFW’s northeast region manager, will sit on the committee.
The following people were selected from a list of 82 nominees based on their qualifications and ability to fairly represent the interests of the various stakeholder groups:
Hunters: Ivan (Sandy) Sanderson, Salem.
Livestock producers: Sharon Beck, Cove.
Public Land Manager: Meg Mitchell, Enterprise.
Trappers: Joe Colver, Portland.
Eastern Oregon County Commissioners: Ben Boswell, Enterprise.
Range/Forest Conservationists: Brett Brownscombe, LaGrande.
Citizens At-Large (East): Bob Lund, LaGrande.
