The Pend Oreille Basin Commission, also known as the "Lakes Commission," is based in Sandpoint, Idaho. To learn more about the make up and/or mission of the Commission, please visit the "About Us" page. New news? Well we moved into a stellar new office in the Power House (located at 120 East Lake Street, Suite 301 in Sandpoint). You are more than welcome to stop in and visit, but please call ahead as office hours are subject to change depending on the week's activites; regular office hours can be difficult with just one part-time staffer. Our last meeting was a great one and was held on September 2nd, 2009 at the Dover Community Hall. Agenda items included: 1) An update on the Lake*A*Syst program; 2) a presentation from Lt. Cary Kelly of the BC Sheriffs Office Marine Division; 3) Tri-State Water Quality Council Updates; and 4) Pend Oreille Basin Commission projects and updates. Our upcoming quarterly meeting will be held Wednesday, January 6th at the Dover City Hall from 10 AM-1PM. Agenda items include: 1) Discussion on the Lake Pend Oreille winter pool fluctuation proposal; 2) an update on upstream proposed mining projects; 3) a presentation on the Lake Pend Oreille fishery (Angler Incentive Program, kokanee and bull trout status, etc); 4) an update on the Lake*A*Syst program; and 5) Commission project updates.
