ROSEBURG, Ore. - The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW) and the Rogue SMU Fall Chinook Conservation Plan advisory committee meets Monday, March 12 at Southwestern Oregon Community College Curry Campus (Room 109), 96082 Lone Ranch Parkway, Brookings. The meeting runs 6 p.m. - 9 p.m. with time for public comment at the end of the meeting.

The conservation plan covers populations of native fall chinook salmon in Oregon streams between Euchre Creek and the California border and the Rogue River Basin. Guided by ODFW's Native Fish Conservation Policy, the plan will identify desired and conservation status and describe management strategies to reach these goals.<br />
The mission of the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife is to protect and enhance Oregon's fish and wildlife and their habitats for use and enjoyment by present and future generations.
