Some Swanton residents
are upset about a proposal to remove a dam from the Mississquoi River as a way
to reopen seven miles of spawning habitat for several Lake Champlain fish
species.
The
commissioner of the Department Fish and Wildlife says a recent increase in
hunting bodes well for the finances of the department.
Wayne
LaRouche says hunting and fishing licenses increased slightly last
year. The fees paid for those licenses
make up about 37 percent of the department’s budget.
