DENVER, Colo. — The Colorado Division of Wildlife is starting its 5-year review of statewide fishing regulations and is asking anglers throughout the state to provide comments and suggestions on regulations and possible changes.
       
Regulation planning will be discussed throughout Colorado at "Angler Roundtable" meetings that will begin in late March. Management and research for various waters will also be discussed at the meetings. Dates and locations of those meetings are still being scheduled and will be announced later.
       
Aquatic biologists continually evaluate fisheries, and every five years the Colorado Wildlife Commission looks at all fishing regulations to ensure that the DOW continues to meet fisheries management objectives and recreational needs of anglers. The regulations set allowable methods of take, season dates, size requirements and bag limits. The regulations include statewide rules that apply to individual waters throughout Colorado.
       
Besides regulations, DOW biologists will examine biological and social data from state waters. These include fish and creel surveys, research and trend information, water quality issues, stocking activity and angler-satisfaction surveys. That information will be considered in the decision-making process for setting new regulations.
       
"We actively seek input from anglers during this process," said Greg Gerlich, aquatic section manager for the DOW. "Colorado’s anglers represent a diverse group who enjoy angling for everything from trout to walleye. We enjoy hearing from anglers and also educating them on how they play a role in management and regulatory decisions."
       
Every year more than 600,000 people buy fishing licenses in Colorado. The state offers a wide variety of angling opportunities. Anglers can fish at warm- and cold-water lakes and reservoirs, in numerous big rivers, and in alpine streams and lakes. Every year, fishing in Colorado generates about $1.2 billion in economic benefits.
       
The DOW requests that angler comments be received by the end of April.
 
The DOW is also asking for comments from fishing organizations, sportsmen’s groups; water resource managers including ditch companies, conservancy districts, and state and federal government agencies; land management agencies, local governments and private landowners; and businesses and communities that have an economic stake in fishing activity.
       
In addition to specific suggestions for individual waters, the DOW also wants to hear suggestions on statewide "big picture" issues.
       
"Colorado has very active associations that are concerned about specific species, such as bass, walleye and trout. We want to hear from those groups. But it’s also important for us to receive comments from individual anglers to get a balance of opinions," Gerlich said.
       
After receiving input from anglers and an internal review, draft regulations will be prepared by July and presented for more public comment. The draft regulations will be sent to the wildlife commission in September for review; more public comment will be allowed at that time. New regulations will be adopted formally in November.
 
The Colorado Division of Wildlife is divided into four regions: northeast, northwest, southeast and southwest. Aquatic biologists in each region are responsible for maintaining waters.
 
Comments on regulations can be submitted to:
Dave Chadwick, statewide issues, (303)291-7174, dave.chadwick@state.co.us; Southwest Region, John Alves, (719)587-6907, john.alves@state.co.us; Northwest Region, Sherman Hebein, (970)255-6186, sherman.hebein@state.co.us; Southeast Region, Doug Krieger, (719)227-5202, doug.krieger@state.co.us; Northeast Region, Ken Kehmeier, (970)291-4350. ken.kehmeier@state.co.us.

DENVER, Colo. –The Colorado Wildlife Commission will finalize falconry regulations and review draft regulations pertaining to Division of Wildlife properties at its regular meeting on Thursday, March 11 in Denver.

The meeting will be held from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. at the Hunter Education Building at Division of Wildlife Headquarters, 6060 Broadway Denver.

The modification of falconry regulations began in October of 2008 when the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service published revised federal regulations related to the possession of raptors associated with the practice of falconry. The Commission opted to review the regulations in order to ensure compliance between state and federal regulations, and to address internal and stakeholder issues associated with the practice of falconry. Division of Wildlife staff has conducted extensive outreach and public involvement with falconers. The final regulations to be approved by the Commission are a significant liberalization of regulations governing the practice of falconry in Colorado.

The Commission will also review draft regulations pertaining to the annual review of Division property regulations. This is the second step in the Commission’s "three-step process.”" Proposed changes include: prohibiting the launching of aircraft on all state wildlife areas, modifying regulations for properties managed with the Division’s hunting reservation system and extending closing dates on various state trust lands until May 31 annually to allow for spring turkey hunting. The Commission will approve the final version of these regulations at its May meeting.

The Commission will honor Sigrid Ueblacker, founder of the Birds of Prey Foundation, who recently passed away. The Birds of Prey Foundation has taken in more than 10,000 injured raptors since she founded the foundation in 1984.   

The Commission will meet with the Colorado Water Conservation Board from 1:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m. to discuss topics of mutual interest.

Constituents can listen to Commission meetings and workshops through the DOW’s Web site. This opportunity is provided to keep constituents better informed about the development of regulations by the Commission and how they and the DOW staff are resolving issues facing Colorado’s wildlife. 

People can listen to live audio feeds of the meetings by clicking on the "listen to audio" link on the "Wildlife Commission" Web page during the meeting. Broadcasts are only available during the meeting.

The Colorado Wildlife Commission is an 11-member board appointed by the governor. The Commission sets Division of Wildlife regulations and policies for hunting, fishing, watchable wildlife, nongame, threatened and endangered species. The Commission also oversees Division of Wildlife land purchases and property regulations.
