Fish and Game Director Joe Greenley presented a fiscal 1977 plan totaling 9.2 million dollars but warned spending authority may need trimming to cover a potential 411 thousand holdback. License revenues lag behind expectations, with January–June sales down 529 thousand, while fisheries costs exceed receipts, prompting a 97 thousand cut in fish food and a 20 percent drop in fish production.
