October 23, 2020 Fishing Report
COLORADO PARKS & WILDLIFE Fishing Fishing Report Regulations rd Friday October 23 , 2020 Review News and Information COVID -19 Response Below are some frequently asked questions we have been receiving from the public. Colorado Parks and Wildlife reminds anglers, hunters, and all other outdoor recreationists that it is your responsibility to research and understand the specific guidance, ordinances, and restrictions in place for any planned local recreation - know before you go. To see specific county health orders, visit: Colorado Counties Safer at Home Map. To see county fire restrictions, visit: Colorado Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Management Fire Bans and Danger Page 2020 KOKANEE REGULATIONS AND 2020 KOKANEE GIVEAWAYS Colorado Parks and Wildlife has released the 2020 Kokanee Regulations and Kokanee Giveaway flyer. The handout includes information on fishing in Colorado and is not a legal notice or a complete collection of fishing regulations and laws. It is a condensed guide issued for anglers’ convenience. Copies of statutes and regulations can be obtained from a Colorado Parks and Wildlife office or as a PDF by clicking HERE. Lake Pueblo State Park implements winter hours for boat ramps and decontamination stations that guard against the invasion of zebra and quagga mussels “These seasonal hours mean boaters have less freedom to come and go at Lake Pueblo,” said Joe Stadterman, Lake Pueblo operations manager. “After ANS stations and gates are closed, the boat ramps are locked and no boats are able to enter or leave the water. “The strict control of access is necessary to continue to keep Lake Pueblo free of invasive zebra and quagga mussels.” CPW orders public fish salvage as extreme drought threatens a catastrophic die-off at Wahayoya Reservoir in Huerfano County Wahatoya Reservoir, a coldwater lake known for rainbow, brown and cutthroat trout, is in imminent danger of a catastrophic fish kill due to extremely low lake levels.

APPENDIX A20 CUMULATIVE IMPACTS TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM April 2020 by David Evans and Associates
APPENDIX A20 CUMULATIVE IMPACTS TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM Environmental Assessment and Section 4(f) Evaluation APPENDIX A20 CUMULATIVE IMPACTS TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM April 2020 By David Evans and Associates INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND The I-70 West Vail Pass Auxiliary Lanes project is located in Eagle and Summit Counties, with the eastern terminus just east of the Vail Pass Rest Area and the western terminus in the Town of Vail. The project study limits include eastbound (EB) and westbound (WB) I-70 from mile post (MP) 179.5 to MP 191.5. The project location and approximate study area are shown in Figure 1 . As part of the initial National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) analysis, a Tier 1 Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the I-70 Mountain Corridor (C-470 to Glenwood Springs) was completed in 2011. This EIS, the I-70 Mountain Corridor Programmatic Final Environmental Impact Statement (PEIS), recommended the addition of auxiliary lanes EB and WB on the west side of Vail Pass from MP 180 to MP 190 as part of the Preferred Alternative’s Minimum Program of Improvements. The PEIS also identified the potential for an elevated Advanced Guideway System (AGS) for transit along the I-70 corridor, including the West Vail Pass project corridor. A follow-up AGS Feasibility Study in 2014 analyzed potential alignments and costs for an AGS system and determined there were three feasible alignments for future AGS. While AGS is not part of the West Vail Pass Auxiliary Lanes project, the AGS Feasibility Study was used to ensure the project did not preclude the favored alignment of the three, which would be partially within CDOT right-of-way (ROW).

Fishing Report
COLORADO PARKS & WILDLIFE Fishing ReportFishing Regulations Friday March 23rd, 2018 Review News and Information CPW accepts check for $29 million grant from U.S. Department of the Interior Colorado Parks and Wildlife Director Bob Broscheid on Tuesday, March 20, accepted a check for $29 million from the U.S. Department of Interior, declaring the funding “critical to CPW’s efforts for wildlife conservation, research, habitat preservation” as well as for supporting hunting and fishing programs. Invasive mussels knocking on Colorado's door prompts Highline Lake to revise boat ramp rules Beginning April 1, Colorado Parks and Wildlife will lock the boat ramp each evening at Highline Lake State Park, or when Aquatic Nuisance Species inspectors are not available. The new rule is in response to the growing threat posed to Colorado's water by the few boaters suspected of illegally launching their watercraft without the required aquatic nuisance species inspection. Anglers can provide input at two CPW 'State of the Fish" meetings in Summit, Grand counties In continuing efforts to engage the public in constructive conversations, Colorado Parks and Wildlife will hold two 'State of the Fish' gatherings in Summit and Grand County later this month. Agency biologists and managers will be available to answer questions about the current status of local fisheries, and future management plans. Go fish! 2018 fishing licenses are available now, valid beginning April 1 Colorado Parks and Wildlife reminds anglers that it's time to get ready for another season of fishing. Coloradans and non-resident visitors can purchase a 2018 annual fishing license now either online, at your local CPW office or at any of our hundreds of authorized sales agents statewide.
