Joint Boards of Fisheries and Game

Joint Boards

The Board of Fisheries and the Board of Game meet jointly as the Joint Board of Fisheries and Game to address issues common to both boards such as habitat concerns and all regulations governing advisory committees. Meetings of the Joint Board are scheduled on an as needed basis. Actions taken by the Joint Board require a majority of each of two boards.
 
The Joint Board of Fisheries and Game set the regulations for advisory committee guidelines. These include the establishment of advisory committees, setting the number of seats by community if more than one community is represented on the committee, and setting the guidelines for uniform rules of operation. The composition of advisory committees can be changed by the Joint Board after they receive a proposal and meet to act on the proposal.
