Fish, Wildlife & Parks is seeking to fill six volunteer positions on the Region 4 Citizen Advisory Council (CAC). The panel was established two years ago to provide input and guidance to FWP from the public.
<br>The CAC is a general advisory committee that meets three to four times annually and works with FWP on all issues and programs. Citizen advisors serve in a voluntary capacity with meals and travel expenses provided for a four-year term. The meetings, open to the public, are held in various communities around the region and generally are devoted to two or three main topics, though citizen advisors come to meetings prepared to discuss the whole breadth of FWP business, from wildlife and fisheries management to access, state parks and law enforcement.<br>
<br>Applicants are needed to fill vacancies created by the expiration of the terms of Charles Bocock, Great Falls; Judie Suden, Great Falls; Jodie Butler, Carter; Doug Caltrider, White Sulphur Springs; James Elings, Cut Bank; and Rocky Harber, Wolf Creek.<br>
<br>Residents of those communities are encouraged to apply for the vacancies, though applicants will be considered from across Region 4. Applicants will be asked to provide an overview of their interests and involvement in natural resource issues plus write a few sentences on why they are interested in serving on the CAC.<br>
<br>To obtain an application, either call FWP at 454-5840, email Fred Schultz at fschultz@mt.gov or write to the Region 4 headquaters: FWP, 4600 Giant Springs Road, Great Falls, MT 59405<br>
<br>Applications must be received by FWP by May 30. A panel of FWP managers and current CAC members will select the new members, who will be notified by July 1.
