EXHIBIT
By: Teresa Miller, Hunting & Fishing Liaison
This was the first fish distribution that
yours truly has been involved in and not being
one to put things off, I began worrying about it
several months ago. Through the records I
found and by talking with others I came to one
conclusion and that was, there is nothing
certain when it comes to fish distribution.
The fish come to the dam when they
are ready to, and not before. There is just no
way to know for certain when they will arrive
and no way of knowing how many.
M em bers of the O regon
S tate
Department of Fish and W ildlife went out of
their way for us this year to make the fish
available to us as soon as possible....many
phone calls were made back and forth to
coordinate the effort and keep me informed
about the migration of the Salmon.
A. number of people were responsible
for the success of this years distribution.
They gave me advise and encouragement,
rolled up their sleeves and pitched in, and
basically w alked me through the entire
process. In particular, Kristi Martin-Bayya,
told me what to expect, the supplies I would
need and the basics of the entire process.
Bristo Bayya, Benny Marzan, and
myself went to the dams on three different
occasions. Bristo and Benny cleaned the Salmon
all three times, and I have never seen anyone
do it so fast. Ralph and Calvin Easter picked up
at Foster Dam for the Springfield Area Office
and stayed to .help Jpad fhq je s V of our fish.
Bob Tom transported for the Salem Area Office
and Kelly S trickler fo r the Portland. Area
Office. Steve Krieg, our Tribal Forester, gave
us the use of one of the forestry trucks with
the canopy to insure that the Salmon would not
get heated up.
Jay Christensen, Rocky
Hoiness, Robert Kentta, Monte Kentta and
Dotty Highley all worked on the distribution
here in Siletz and many others worked at the
other Area Offices. Danny Rilatos helped to
coordinate the effort.Thank you to Mike Freels
and Steven Berntsen. Mike allowed us to us the
STEDCO facilities when they were not in use
for commercial processing and Steve helped
with the clean up. Evert , the STEDCO crew
pitched in and helped on the filleting at the end
of the distribution. The STEDCO office staff
fielded all phone calls and put up with total
choas on two separate occasions.
Because fish have a mind of their own,
and if was uncertain when they would arrive at
the dams, we had to change the dates of the
distribution on more than one occasion. We
appreciated your patience when that happened.
It was a real learning experience for
me and I want to thank everyone for helping me
through this first year...we hope you enjoyed
