Soileau Industries in Ville Platte. The make/sell PVC pipe and the riser/structure you are looking for.

I was at the ORCS earlier this week for a tour. It's impressive to see and to hear how they operate the structures and how the hydro-electric plant was floated in. No one knows for sure if the Morganza will be opened, but the Corp has sent letters to landowners within the floodway notifying them of the potential for the structure to opened to higher flows.

Zones and Splits are set every 5 years, and are set by options given to the state by USFWS. If you want to comment on the options that are available to LA for the upcoming 5 years, here's your chance! Please keep you comments limited to the options that are avialble to us. What you think about "other" options really doesn't matter at this point.

I would like your opinion on zones and splits.

As you probably know, we set zones and splits every 5 years. Whatever we choose, we are stuck with for that time.

In the past, the USFWS has allowed us to choose between 1) 3 zones with straight seasons, 2) 2 zones with split seasons, or 3) a statewide season (no zones) with 2 splits (3 season segements). This year, it looks like the USFWS will offer: 1) 4 zones with straight seasons, 2) 3 zones with split seasons, or 3) a statewide season (no zones) with 2 splits (3 season segments).

Of course, we can choose anything more conservative …… like 2 zones with split seasons (our current structure) or 3 zones with straight seasons or a statewide season with 1 split.

One option that was NOT approved was 2 zones with 2 splits (3 season segments). That is NOT an option.

It is my opinion that we are using zones and splits about as effectively as we can with the current 2 zones with split seasons while still allowing us adequate flexibility should the regulations be restricted to 45 or even 30 day seasons. But I would like to hear the opinions of other hunters in addition to the feedback I already have from the 2005 and 2010 hunter-opinion surveys.

I'd also appreciate your passing this request around to anyone that might want to comment.
