  • Idaho Moose Management Plan 2020-2025
    Idaho Moose Management Plan 2020-2025 DRAFT December 10, 2019 1 This page intentionally left blank. 2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Shiras Moose (Alces alces shirasi) occur across much of Idaho, except for the southwest corner of the state. Moose are highly valued by both hunters and non-hunters, providing consumptive and non-consumptive opportunities that have economic and aesthetic value. Over the past century their known range has expanded from small areas of northern and eastern Idaho to their current distribution. Population size also increased during this time, likely peaking around the late 1990s or early 2000s. The Idaho Department of Fish and Game (IDFG) is concerned that current survey data, anecdotal information and harvest data indicate moose have recently declined in parts of Idaho. Several factors may be impacting moose populations both positively and negatively including predation, habitat change (e.g., roads, development, timber harvest), changing climate, disease or parasites and combinations thereof. IDFG was established to preserve, protect, perpetuate and manage all of Idaho’s fish and wildlife. As such, species management plans are written to set statewide management direction to help fulfill IDFG’s mission. Idaho’s prior moose management plan (Idaho Department of Fish and Game 1990) addressed providing a quality hunting experience, the vulnerability of moose to illegal harvest, protecting their habitat, improving controlled hunt drawing odds and expanding moose populations into suitable ranges. The intent of this revision to the 1990 Moose Management Plan is to provide guidance for IDFG and their partners to implement management actions that will aid in protection and management of moose populations in Idaho and guide harvest season recommendations for the next 6 years.

  • Notice of Application L96S2687 Camp Bay Community Dock
    Case No. PH-2021-PUB-20-003 July 6th, 2021 IDAHO DEPARTMENT OF LANDS Attn: Jennifer [email protected] Re: Notice of Application L96S2687 Camp Bay Community Dock The Lake Pend Oreille Waterkeeper (LPOW) appreciates the opportunity to submit comments regarding the above referenced Encroachment Permit Application. LPOW is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization that works to protect the water quality of Lake Pend Oreille (LPO), the Pend Oreille River and their associated waterways so that they remain swimmable, fishable and drinkable for future generations. While the overall water quality of LPO is healthy, we all need to stay vigilant in advocating for clean water in order to prevent the degradation of our precious resources. As mentioned in previous comments on encroachment applications, LPOW does not make it a general practice to get involved and/or comment on specific land use projects or individual docks. However, this project has a long history, a recent Petition for Judicial Review has been filed, and according to Panhandle Health no sewage disposal system, whether it be community or individual septic, has been approved. Due to a number of uncertain potential outcomes LPOW respectfully requests a public hearing for this application so that all community members and agencies involved are informed with most current information regarding the entire project. With regard to the Petition for Judicial Review (attached), it was filed by a neighbor against the Bonner County Board of Commissioners contending that the vacation of a road leading to the water was not in the public interest. It is concerning to LPOW that if the petitioner prevails, it may force the rearrangement of the entire subdivision, especially waterfront lots, in turn modifying the location of docks.
