Haight's fears proved correct after the addition of three new donation options in 1987, contributions to the non game tund tell from more than $22$,000 for that tax year to an all time low ot only $109, hit) tor the tax year o f 1988 " The total funds contributed to all checkoffs has remained fairly cons tant over the ye ars." Flaight said recently "A d d in g new options has |ust meant cutting thinner slices from the same pie Ml ot the checkoffs are worthy programs that need money, but people who donate are either spreading their contribution among several checkoffs, or just picking one The situation is much the same among other states, Haight said, citing a national study which determined that checkoff contributions " drop ped an average o f 16 4 percent when a second choice was added, and it just goes on down from there " Much o f the monies from Oregon's non game program are directed toward positive (yet expensive) recovery efforts for threatened and en dangered species, such as the Peregrine talcon and bald eagle Peregrines, for example, cost approximately $2000 each, Haight has said He credits the non-game tund as responsible tor the continued recovery ol these last flyin g raptors from a statewide population ot almost zero before the pro gram began. Other priorities include working with those species which could face future problems if habitat and other components tor survival are not improved. "W h a t we have done since the beginning ot the checkoff program is. I think, outstanding." Haight said in an earlier interview "W e've managed to cover a lot o f ground, gel a lot o f research done, and a lot ot habitat work d o n e ." Oregon taxpayers directing $10 or more o f their refund to the non game- checkoff w ill receive a subscription to a quarterly newsletter about the non game program and activities thereof "W e know that the added checkoffs are not the only reason tor declin ing co ntribu tion s," Haight said "Som e people have been giving tor ten years without any good feedback on what their contributions have ac complished We hope to change that with the newsletter People need to know how their money is being used Persons checking o ff $10 or more to the non game tund do not automatically receive the publication, they must request it by w riting Nongame Newsletter.
