I apologize in advance for the duplicate emails to some of you. I have separate address books by committee and some of you are on more than one WOHVA committee. I hope the Communication Committee will soon be able to handle getting things like this to you so I only need to send one email to them and you will all get it.
See attached NOHVCC information.

Dave,
From your notes appears to have been a very productive meeting. Have attached the agendas for the NOHVCC FS Travel Management Rule agency and public workshops. These and the release about the workshops - currently on the NOHVCC website at wwww.nohvcc.org - may be of interest to the Board, Committee and WOHVA members. And, great picture - glad that you are keeping your priorities straight. dana

The Board of Directors (BOD) discussed Joe Wernex’s offer to facilitate a letter generation work shop to create letters for input to the USFS regarding OHV use that needs to be accommodated in their new Travel Plan. We agreed to take Joe up on his offer and discussed potential dates and places. These will be firmed up after Dave Hiatt confirms Joe’s availability. (7/11/06 note – Date is July 23, 2006. Time 0930 to 1530. Place is the Clover Park Technical College Automotive Rotunda. We will put an specific topic on the board, write about it, then put another topic on the board, write about it, etc. Please bring your notebook PC or favorite writing pad. We will have lots of white paper, and disks, (3.5” and CDR) for transferring what you write to the WOHVA file.)
We agreed that the following people would be committed to recruit at least the following number of volunteers from each WOHVA organization listed (more would be better);
NMA – Rick Dahl – 3 recruits
TMC – Dave Hiatt – 1 recruit
PNW4WD – Arlene Brooks – 4 recruits
WATV – Gary Johnson – 3 recruits
WSMDA – Vicki Gray – 2 recruits
AMA – Ed Bushnell – 2 recruits
Action Item: Dave Hiatt to get this information to the above people after confirmation with Joe Wernex.
Elkins showed us the WSSA Wilderness Statement.

Ed Bushnell – He is already working to get legislation introduced and passed in the 2007 session that will eliminate the Dept of Licensing’s (DOL) windfall profit from the ORV tag fee increase. Ed is in the process of obtaining the data and will work with the Political Action Committee to get this in place for 2007.
Tom Fite – Floated the idea of having a statewide 4WD/ATV/OHM (demonstration or competition with emphasis on drawing spectators/vendors) event all at once at Straddleline to raise awareness and funding for WOHVA. This sounded like a great idea and we will discuss it more.
Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) – Draft #4, 6/22/06 was reviewed/modified. A motion was made, seconded and passed to adopt them.
Next WOHVA BOD meeting is at Hiatt Pontiac GMC Team Room July 27, 2006 at 7:30 P.M. The fourth Thursday of each month, 7:30 P.M. at Hiatt Pontiac GMC Team Room was agreed on for DOD meetings in July, August &September, 2006 so people can plan ahead.
