  • The ODFW Recreation Report
    Welcome to the ODFW Recreation Report FISHING, HUNTING, WILDLIFE VIEWING August 13, 2013 Warmwater fishing While trout fishing has slowed in many locations due to high air and water temperatures, warmwater fish like bass, bluegill and yellow perch continue to offer opportunities for good fishing. Our warmwater fishing webpage is a great place to get started, and you’ll find the latest condition updates here in the Recreation Report. Head out to the high lakes With temperatures high now might be a good time to head out to Oregon’s high mountains. Many mountain lakes available for day use or overnight camping that require only a short hike into them. Some of these waters get very little use, and anglers will often find the solitude incredible. If you plan to camp keep in mind that overnight temperatures at the higher elevation can be quite chilly. Maps should be available from the local U.S. Forest Service office. Be aware of fire restrictions because fire danger is high in many areas. 2013-14 Oregon Game Bird Regulations now online See the PDF on the Hunting page: http://www.dfw.state.or.us/resources/hunting/index.asp Archery hunters – Errors in the regulations on Chesnimnus bag limit, traditional equipment only area The 2013 Oregon Big Game Regulations contain errors in the archery section. On page 51, the “Traditional Archery Equipment Only” restriction should not be in the Columbia Basin, Biggs, Hood and Maupin Units—that restriction is for the Canyon Creek Area only. On page 79, the Chesnimnus hunt bag limit of “one bull elk” (hunt #258R) should be “one elk.” These errors were corrected by the Fish and Wildlife Commission in June.

  • 1 the Workbook Integrates the Facility Portion of the Agency Budget Submission with the Capital Project Advisory Board Submission
    1 The workbook integrates the facility portion of the Agency Budget Submission with the Capital Project Advisory Board Submission. 2 The definitions for budget priorities are the same in both documents. 2a Note: Priority # 4 has changed from Recommended Improvements to Seismic and Natural Hazard Remediation. Add your remediation estimates by building, if your agency has conducted this analysis. For agencies participating in the Facility Conditions Assessment Program, this assessment will be provided. 2b Priority #5 has changed from New Code Requirements/Standards to Modernization. This category combines the former #4 Recommended Improvements, and the former #5, New Code priority categories. It expands the definition to include replacement of facilities. See definition in the budget instructions and those included in the relevant forms. 3 Begin the workbook with the last 3 CPAB tabs. This data feeds much of the reaming workbook. These will be reviewed by CPAB only. If your agency has migrated to iPlan, the blue columns will come directly from the iPlan CPAB reports. IF your agency has not migrated to iPlan, please self-report your information. 3a CPAB Current Priority 1-4 is for current needs as of April 2020 to align with the PICS reporting budget instructions. 3b CPAB 10 Year Priority 1-4 gives your agency the opportunity to give the 10 year projected needs for your building portfolio. 3c CPAB Priority 5 are not generally part of an FCA, rather they are needs that are driven by program and function. New buildings and major building refresh/renovations would generally be included in priority #5.
