POORT signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife for a pilot project in the Port Orford Stewardship Area to implement ecosystem and community based management today at the Port Orford Library. The MOU creates a data sharing framework between ODFW and POORT, allows POORT to raise local issues for access and management, and is a pilot program for implementing Oregon's nearshore strategy. We are the first community in Oregon to have this opportunity with ODFW! ODFW Director Roy Elicker signed for ODFW, while Aaron Longton, President of the POORT Fishermen's Board signed for POORT. |
