Not a damned one of them has ever heard of this invasive plant before now. If the governor had half a grain of sense he would immediately take charge and assign this to some school, company or expert who knows what the hell they're doing - and then get the hell out of the way - and tell Sigman to do the same. <br /><br />But, to your theory that 'all state agencies will contract with people who have the skills, knowledge yada yada'. Do you remember back when the state agency then called The State Game and Fish Commission contracted with people to bring in Israeli carp to take care of pond and lake growth in the Delta? And, as a result, we now have flying carp in every oxbow lake in the state. <br /><br />And how well are these 'state agencies' doing in combating wild hogs in thirteen counties?Rest Easy - The State's Got This!noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-41851651454576919572018-10-19T22:30:52.523-05:002018-10-19T22:30:52.523-05:00For all you idiots out there - see if you can foll...For all you idiots out there - see if you can follow along here.

Many of you seem to be off your med today - get a grip and understand that governments hire companies to do shit for them all the time.

They are simply a state agency and this is way over their heads. This problem needs to be immediately turned over to an agency of competent ability, not a group who sit around the office on telephones talking to other states about what they're doing or might do. <br /><br />In the past twenty months I've lost count of the goofy initiatives and plans and mandates these people have put in place to no avail. A current example is mandating the removal of boats and junk piles from property where homes sit. <br /><br />This is a very serious issue that could mean disaster for much of our Reservoir. This is something our governor needs to be involved in rather than piddling around with endorsement of Cindy Smythe and attending shovel stickings.
