Fish fight

From the Fairbanks Daily News-Miner, December 4, 2011. Letters to the Editor

To the editor:

We have protected the Chitina dip-netters since we were formed in 1976. I became president in 1984 and Gen Carlson was the first president.

The Board of Fisheries is still using a rural priority, which is unconstitutional for state agencies to do in Alaska.

The Alaska Supreme Court will have a hearing Dec. 5 at 2:15 p.m. on the fifth floor of the courthouse on Lacey Street. Please attend.

This has been a long court battle and very expensive, so any donation you can make would sure help the cause. Call us at 456-4447 and check the website www.chitinadipnetters.com.

Byron Haley, president
