Waterfowl Symposium 2021 – SRWA

All,

I am emailing to let you know the waterfowl symposium has been set for:

Wednesday, March 10th, 1PM. It will be an online Q&A this year that will be broadcast live on the PGC Facebook Page. It will be recorded and available to view afterward.

In addition, we have provided proposed seasons this year for everyone to comment on. The proposals can also be found here https://www.pgc.pa.gov/HuntTrap/Hunting/Documents/2021-22%20Proposed%20Waterfowl%20Hunting%20Seasons.pdf. Included in this document are the preliminary frameworks. We ask that you provide comments both in support of season dates you like and in opposition of those you do not.

Lastly, a summary of the waterfowl hunter survey conducted in 2020 can be found here https://www.pgc.pa.gov/HuntTrap/Hunting/Documents/2020%20Waterfowl%20Hunter%20Survey%20Summary.pdf. We used the results of this survey to inform the proposal.

Both of the documents referenced above can be found on the waterfowl hunting and conservation page of the PGC website: https://www.pgc.pa.gov/HuntTrap/Hunting/Pages/WaterfowlHuntingandConservation.aspx

Comments on proposed seasons can be sent to waterfowlcomments@pa.gov, or mailed to: Pennsylvania Game Commission, Bureau of Wildlife Management, 2001 Elmerton Avenue, Harrisburg, PA 17110-9797.

Please share this information far and wide. We would really like to see large participation at the live Q&A as well as comments in support or opposition of the proposed seasons.

Cheers,
