FWC to hold virtual meeting May 12-13
Public comments will be crucial in the direction FWC will be going in regard to the management of snook, redfish and trout in the previously affected red tide area.
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) will meet virtually May 12 and 13 beginning at 9 a.m. ET each day. The meeting will be held virtually using communications media technology due to COVID-19 (Coronavirus) social distancing guidelines. The virtual link for this meeting will be provided on MyFWC.com closer to the meeting date.
The FWC is committed to providing opportunity for public input. To accommodate as much input as possible from those participating in the meeting, the Chairman reserves the right to designate the amount of time given to a topic or speaker, including time donation to other speakers. See agenda for the total time limits for each item. Public comment will be taken on a first call/first serve basis.
