Next MLPA Meetings Apr 11-12; MLPA update

[KFASC]

The MLPA Blue Ribbon Task Force's next meeting will take place Monday April 11 and Tuesday April 12. According to the state's MLPA website, the meeting location has not been announced. The Task Force met last week in Monterey, where the agenda called for the Central California Study Area to be selected. Too few Task Force members were at the meeting to form a quorum, so the selection of the Study Area was put off until the upcoming April meeting. When the meeting location is available, the KFASC will publicize the information.

Monday Feb 28 is reportedly the final day to submit public comments on the MLPA Draft Master Plan Framework. Get the document here: http://www.dfg.ca.gov/mrd/mlpa/pdfs/agenda2_022205.pdf
