ODFW to host Public Meetings on Regulations for Redfish Rocks and Otter Rock Marine Reserves

The Oregon Department of and Fish and Wildlife will host two public meetings describing fishing and other prohibitions scheduled to take effect on Jan. 1, 2012 at the Otter Rock marine reserve and the Redfish Rocks marine reserve and marine protected area. Both of these sites were designated marine reserves in 2009 but the prohibitions were delayed  so scientists could collect baseline data from each site.

Redfish Rocks meeting: Nov.  16 from 6-7:30pm at the Port Orford Community Hall, 419E 11th St, Port Orford

Otter Rock meeting: Nov.  17 from 6-7:30pm at the Depoe Bay Community Hall, 220 SE Bay Street, Depoe Bay

Staff members from ODFW and the Oregon State Police will be available to answer questions and provide information on the prohibitions and boundaries of each of the two marine reserve sites.
