The boundaries of the closed area shall be: from the easternmost jetty at theGrand Isle State Park to the easternmost shoreline of Caminada Pass, seaward to a water depth of six (6) feet. Such Commission action has been requested by the City of Grand Isle which has also effected a similar ordinance, entitled. Resolution No. 852♦

4

The action is necessary to curb interference of commercial net use to recreational fishermen who are surf fishing in this relatively small area; and, because of fish remains and trash being brought onto the beach, by use of said nets, and presenting a health hazard to children and other beach users.

Interested persons may submit written comments on the proposed rule until 4:30 PM, July 8, 1986 at the following address: J. Burton Angelle, Secretary, Louisiana Departmentof Wildlife and Fisheries, P. 0. Box 15570, Baton Rouge, LA 70895.

Dr. Hines made a motion to add an item to the agenda which was inadvertently omitted. The notice of future hunting dates are to be printed in the hunting regulations pamphlet in order that hunters can make plans for vacations. He said he would like for this notice to read that the Louisiana Wildlife and Fisheries Commission has scheduled opening dates for the next resident game seasons to accommodate hunters who want to schedule vacations in advance of the hunting season. The length of seasons may vary from year to year but opening days will remain as follow until further notice. Squirrel and Rabbit, the first Saturday inOctober; Quail, Thanksgiving Day; Deer, archery, October 1st;Deer, gun, still hunting areas 1 and 5, the Saturday before Thanks­giving; still hunting areas, 2, 3 and 4, the Saturday occurring nineteen (19) days before Thanksgiving. Dog hunting in all areas open for dogs the first Saturday in December. Mr. Gray seconded the motion and all were in favor.

(The full text of the resolution here is made a part of the record)

WHEREAS, the Commission has received numerous requests to standardize and publicize future opening dates for resident game species so citizens can schedule vacations accordingly, and

WHEREAS, for many years the same traditional opening dates have been established for squirrel, rabbit, quail and deer archery hunting, and

WHEREAS, the Commission also desires to establish a pattern of tradition for opening days affecting gun seasons for deer, now

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that during the succeeding years opening dates for squirrel, rabbit, quail and deer seasons will be published in the Department's annual Hunting, Fishing and Motorboat Regulations so hunters can schedule vacations in advance of these important events.

The dates of the October meeting was set for Thursday and Friday, the 2nd and 3rd to be held at the Community Center on Grand Isle.

RESOLUTION CONCERNING STEEL*SHOT VERSUS LEAD SHOT

Acknowledge lead poisoning as a problem.

Question whether steel shot may cause a greater threat because of crippling based on scientific studies in Louisiana, as much so possible as lead poisoning in lead shot does.

State case against steel shot:

a. The public is not generally aware of the danger that steel shot poses in potential harm to older guns such as barrel separation eruption which could also cause serious bodily injuries to the shooter. Many sportsmen in the State of Louisiana have shot the same gun for years and most of these guns would substain severe damage by the use of steel shot.

b. The availability of steel shot in small gauges such as 410and 28 gauge is non-existence. These gauges are used primarily by youth in being taught how to hunt waterfowl.

c. Cost of steel shot.

To state the need to find through research a non-toxic shot that is a better solution to the problem than either lead or steel shot and to urge continuing research by the U.S. Fish and Widllife Service, shell manufacturers and others to develop a suitable solution.

Object to the use of steel shot as proposed by the U.S. Fish and Widllife Service since we do not consider it a good solution to the problem and if it is used widely as they recommend, in all likelihood, it would be preceived by the public as the answer to the problem rather than what could be the introduction of a shot that could be equally as hazardeous to waterfowl as lead pensioning is now.

Dear Mayor Marullo,

Following our recent telephone conversation, please find below the following suggestions pertaining to resolution No. 846.

Now therefore, be it resolved by the Board of Aldermen of the Town of Grand ,Isle that all netting be prohibited from May 1st to September 15 along the seaward boundary of the main island.The boundaries of the closed area shall be: From the Easternmostjetty at the Grand Isle State Park to the easternmost shoreline of Caminada Pass, seaward to an approximate water: depth of 7 feet. This area shall be closed because of interfenence'with recreational fishermen by commercial fishermen, because of fish remains, crab remainsj etc. washing onto the beach presenting a health hazard to small children, litter and associated trash.fouling the beach, etc.

: I hope this guideline is sufficient for your purpose.

Sincerely,

r

Gerald Adkins
