This popular annual event offers a fun environment where the entire family can experience great hands-on activities, demonstrations and presentations that include live wildlife, fishing, archery, shooting sports, hunting, camping, wildlife conservation, and OHV and boating exhibits. More than 100 clubs, vendors and agencies will be on hand to share their expertise and guide you to more outdoor fun. The Expo offers something for everyone. Two huge kids’ fishing tanks will be full of sunfish ready to catch and release. A casting tank full of bass will be where experts demonstrate fishing techniques and tips throughout the day. The Cabela’s Archery Village will offer archery lessons, the opportunity to try out different gear, and the chance to get tips and see demos from competitive archer and renowned bowhunter Randy Ulmer. Visitors can also try out an archery walking course with 3D targets. Live wildlife will be on display, ranging from hawks and owls to rattlesnakes and Gila monsters. Informative wildlife talks will discuss the natural history of some of Arizona’s diverse creatures. Expo attendees will have the chance to try out target shooting with firearms from different manufacturers in a safe, controlled range setting. Different shooting organizations will be on hand to let you experience specialty shooting disciplines, including cowboy action, black powder, and trap and skeet, among others. There will also be exciting shooting demos from exhibition shooter Travis Mears at the shotgun area. Be sure you don’t miss the thrilling competition from the cowboy mounted shooters. They’ll be competing in different events both days, and they will stage a fun Wild West show at 3 p.m. on Saturday the 26th. The Expo will offer off-highway vehicle demonstrations as well as exhibits where you can learn about responsible riding, and boating exhibits where you can learn more about boating recreation and safety. Admission and parking to the Expo are free, but you might want to bring a little cash for the food and beverage vendors or for the nominal ammunition fee at the shooting venues. Hours are 9 a.m. to 5 pm on Saturday, March 26 and 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sunday, March 27. The Ben Avery Shooting facility is located on Carefree Highway, ½ mile west of I-17 in Phoenix. The Gold Sponsor for the Outdoor Expo is Cabela’s. Silver Sponsors are Dick’s Sporting Goods, the Weatherby Foundation International, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.

Comment sought on draft EA that could affect AZ's fish stocking program, native fish conservation Public encouraged to review the draft EA and provide comments by April 11 The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) and the Arizona Game and Fish Department (AGFD) on March 10 made available for review a draft Environmental Assessment (EA) on FWS’s proposal to continue to provide Sport Fish Restoration funds to AGFD to continue the state’s long-standing program of stocking fish for public recreational opportunities, and for hatchery operations and maintenance. Members of the public are encouraged to review and provide comment on the draft EA, as it has ramifications for the future of both sport fish angling and native fish conservation in Arizona. The deadline to submit comments is April 11, 2011. Under the Federal Aid in Sport Fish Restoration Act of 1950, federal funding is provided to state wildlife agencies for management and restoration of sport fish. In fiscal year 2011, Arizona received over $7 million in Sport Fish Restoration Act funds. Under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), federal agencies are required to analyze potential environmental effects of any action they propose to implement, approve, or fund. Because AGFD receives federal funds used to support its stocking program (along with state funds from the sale of licenses and trout stamps), the agency is required to complete an environmental assessment process to allow it to continue receiving those federal funds. This draft EA is a part of the federally required NEPA compliance. ”Support of sport fisheries is an important part of the work of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service,” said Steve Robertson, Chief of the FWS division of Wildlife and Sport Fish Restoration program. “By working with the state we are able to help provide recreational fishing opportunities while being mindful of the need to protect and restore native fish populations.” “In a way, we do a balancing act,” said AGFD Fisheries Chief Kirk Young. “On one hand, Game and Fish wants to provide the public with enjoyable fishing opportunities, which create a huge economic benefit to the state. Yet on the other hand, as a wildlife agency, we also need to consider and manage for the needs of nongame and threatened and endangered wildlife, including native fish. Our proposed conservation and mitigation measures enable us to do that.” The draft EA analyzes a range of three possible actions or alternatives. The Proposed Action would allow AGFD to continue its stocking program at 167 sites for 10 years. The Proposed Action also includes a conservation program to mitigate impacts to federally listed threatened, endangered, and candidate species, and other sensitive native species of fish, amphibians and semi- aquatic reptiles. This is the preferred course of action for both AGFD and FWS. “Basically, for the recreating public, there would be little if any discernible difference in their fishing opportunities across the state if the Proposed Action in the draft EA is selected by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service,” Young said. There are two other alternative actions listed in the draft Environmental Assessment – A “No Action” alternative that would result in the FWS not providing funding for the stocking of sport fish to the Arizona Game and Fish Department and, in essence, the department’s fish stocking program would cease; and a “Reduced Stocking" alternative, which would eliminate 66 stocking sites throughout the state (La Paz County Park Lagoon, Hulsey Lake, Nelson Reservoir, Lyman Reservoir, C.C. Craigin (Blue Ridge Reservoir), Knoll Lake, Clear Creek Reservoir, Mud Tank, Kinnikinick Lake, Coconino Lake, Morton, Ashurst Lake, Marshall Lake, Mormon Lodge Pond, Upper Lake Mary, Lower Lake Mary, Luna Lake, Big Lake, Black River East Fork, Black River West Fork, Workman Creek, Tonto Creek, Christopher Creek, Haigler Creek, Canyon Lake, Saguaro Lake, Tempe Town Lake, Salt River Lower, Parker Canyon, Patagonia, Pena Blanca, Rose Canyon, Granite Basin Lake, Dead Horse Lake, Ver de River Middle, Oak Creek, Wet Beaver Creek, West Clear Creek, East Verde River, Green Valley Lake, Bass Tank, Blue Tank, Alvord Lake, Chaparral Lake, Cortez Lake, Desert Breeze Lake, Desert West Lake, Encanto Lake, Evelyn Hallman Pond, Kiwanis Lake, Papago Ponds, Rio Vista Pond, Riverview Lake, Steele Indian School Pond, Crossroads Park, McQueen Park, Bonsall Park, Granada Park, Roadrunner Park, Eldorado Park, Indian School Park, Vista del Camino Park, Tempe Papago Park, Water Treatment, Discovery District Park and Selleh Park). In addition to providing an overview of the factors affecting threatened and endangered species over time, the draft EA also analyzes the economic impacts of fish stocking and associated outdoor recreation. How to obtain copies and comment on the draft EA: The draft EA is available online at www.azgfd.gov/fishea or at http://www.fws.gov/southwest/federal_assistance/. Additionally, hard copies of the draft EA may be viewed at the AGFD Phoenix Headquarters or regional field offices across the state. For a list of addresses, visit www.azgfd.gov/offices. Comments or requests for copies of the draft EA on CD may be submitted by e-mail to [email protected] or [email protected] or to: Ms. Brie Darr, Wildlife and Sport Fish Restoration Program, U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, P.O. Box 1306, 500 Gold Ave. SW, Ste 9019, Albuquerque, NM 87103. Telephone: (505) 248-7457, Fax: (505) 248-7471, or Mr. Dave Weedman, Habitat Branch, Arizona Game and Fish Department, 5000 W. Carefree Highway, Phoenix, AZ 85086. Telephone: (623) 236-7607, Fax (623) 236-7366. All comments will be accepted through 5 p.m. on April 11, 2011. Once the 30-day public comment period ends, the comments will be considered for incorporation into a final EA. Then a decision will be made by FWS as to the significance of the impacts. Additional background Each year, the Arizona Game and Fish Department stocks more than 3 million fish in Arizona’s lakes, rivers and streams for anglers to catch – mostly rainbow, Apache, or other trout, but some warmwater species such as largemouth bass and channel catfish as well. Recreational angling in Arizona totaled 4,156,000 angling days in 2006, creating a statewide economic impact of more than $1.3 billion annually.

That one’s huge! Whoa, that’s a monster! That one has my name on it!” These were just a few of the many excited comments heard by Urban Fishing biologists as the extra-large incentive trout were delivered to 20 of the Urban Fishing Program lakes on January 9. The special loads of bigger fish and more fish captured the attention of anglers and other park visitors and sent them scrambling for their cameras, cell phones and poles. None of the many 2 to 8 pound beauties have been officially reported for Big Fish honors yet. But, two reports have come in about huge trout from Peoria and Surprise. On January 10 an estimated 8 pounder was caught from Rio Vista Lake and the same day a 6.5 pounder was reeled in from Surprise Lake. No word yet on the 10 pounder our Colorado fish supplier promised. 2008 URBAN FISHING BIG FISH RECORD WINNERS Topping the list of 2008 Urban Program Big Fish-of-the-Year official winners was a 10.2 pound channel catfish caught and kept by Shay Denniston from Lakeside Lake in Tucson. Another huge catch from the Catch and Release category was a 35-inch white amur cranked in by Andrew Schmidt at Red Mountain Lake in Mesa.

Your request was received by our office on February 2, 2017. At issue are impacts that may result from the Arizona Game and Fish Department’s (Department) statewide cormorant trapping research project, to be funded by the Service’s Wildlife Sportfish Restoration (WSFR) program. The WSFR Office has concluded the proposed action “may affect, and is likely to adversely affect” the Yuma Ridgway’s (clapper) rail (Rallus obsoletus [=longirostris] yumanensis). We agree with your determinations and provide our rationale below. In addition, WSFR has concluded the proposed action will have “no effect” to species listed in Appendix A, and not result in adverse modification of critical habitat for any species listed; as such these species and associated critical habitats will not be addressed further in this Biological Opinion (BO). This BO is based on information provided by WSFR and the Department’s Environmental Assessment Checklist (EAC), telephone conversations and meetings between staff, and other sources of information found in the administrative record supporting this BO.
