[env-trinity] Pacific Lamprey Conservation Initiative Regional Meetings

[damon_goodman at fws.gov]

The Pacific Lamprey Conservation Initiative is an effort coordinated by the
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) to facilitate communication and
coordination relative to the conservation of Pacific lamprey throughout
their range.  The goal of the initiative is to develop a Pacific Lamprey
Conservation Plan (Plan) that will lead to restored Pacific lamprey
populations and improvement of their habitat.

In 2009, the Conservation Initiative Team will be hosting a set of regional
work sessions to develop regional components of the Plan.  The Service will
be hosting regional meetings to cover California, Idaho, Oregon,
Washington, and Alaska.  The purpose of these meetings is to gather
information on distribution, abundance, ongoing research, and threats
specific to these regions.


We are planning to hold two regional meetings for California, including the
Oregon component of the Klamath Basin.  One meeting will be held in Arcata,
CA, and will cover the coastal drainages from Cape Mendocino to the Oregon
Border and the entire Klamath Basin.  The second meeting will be held in
Sacramento, CA and will cover from Cape Mendocino south including the
Sacramento and San Joaquin river basins.


I am sending out this email to evaluate the level of interest in each of
these meetings and will determine the venue and duration of each meeting.
Please follow the links below to show your interest in participating in
each of the meetings.  Exact locations and dates for the meeting will be
sent in the near future.
