The commission's two-day agenda will include:

Friday:

A variety of reports including elk plans for Central Nevada, the Governor's Sage Grouse Team, small game water developments, the Nevada Department of Wildlife's (NDOW) volunteer program and the NDOW's law enforcement program.

Saturday:

Set fishing seasons and bag limits for the period of March 1, 2004 through Feb. 28 2006, establishment of a non-resident Mountain Goat hunt, the implementation of a mandatory boating education program as designated by the Nevada Legislature and change the status of the Bullfrog to unprotected.

In addition:

The commissioners will consider a one-day closure for ducks, mergansers, coots, gallinules, moorhens and snipe on Oct. 16 in order that Nevada's hunting regulations conform with a hunting framework that has been established by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
