Neither am i. Because we are a long ways off from dcnr "taking over" and currently its not even an option. And in my opinion, neither should be a fee increase. No way. No how. Change first. Then we'll talk. Till then, pgc can go to....

Course you dont have to worry pats. Pgc is coming into a TON of cash according to the legislative budget & finance committee report on pgc & the marcellus shale deal. HUGE projections. 700,000,000 plus, in only 4 state game lands in northeast Pa. Thats considering they hold 24% of mineral rights according to roe, and estimate from budget & finances committee that those gamelands are projected to produce over $3 billion. And that doesnt even take into account the rest of the states gamelands! If you havent read it id suggest you do so. You might think twice about your concern of giving another 20 a year so pgc can wipe their butt with it. lol... And of course they still have 39 mil. in the reserve account. So theyve got another day or two before living out of a shopping cart. lol.
Thats sounds like very good news If the projections come true, then the PGC will be able to continue to manage the deer herd responsibly without worrying about losing the one day wonders who get discouraged because they actually have to hunt now.
