Whitewater Forum : File your eComment with FERC today!	Author: JoesKayak Subject: File your eComment with FERC today! Posted: 27 Apr 2016 at 8:03am Bumping this again... TODAY IS YOUR LAST CHANCE TO COMMENT FOR THIS COMMENT PERIOD. Lots of comments have been filed already, so thank you to everyone who has filed a comment opposing this ill-conceived horror of a hydro project. If you haven't yet there's still time. Please do so now. If you have filed comments... you can still file again if you have additional points you'd like to address. I'm hopeful that this comment period will be a great help to our cause. There are now hundreds of comments on file both by private citizens as well as government agencies, tribes and non-governmental organizations. One comment in particular is from the Northwest and Conservation Council. In a nutshell, they are saying that Federal Law gives them jurisdiction over where energy projects are created in the Northwest and they designate this river reach as off limits to hydro development. Something we've known but it's great to see they are stepping up to enforce this protection.	Professor Paddle	Washington, Oregon and vicinity

Whitewater Forum : Wenatchee Wednesday	Author: otterend Subject: Wenatchee Wednesday Posted: 27 Apr 2016 at 11:30am Class 3. Wavetrains. A few non-retentive holes. Great play waves and play features. The Wenatchee is a wide river, so having a roll is a strong positive. As a beginner, it's good to run this section with at least 2 other boaters so that if you swim there is someone to assist you to shore and someone to chase the boat. (Hold onto your paddle.)

Whitewater Forum : Upper Sultan Problems	Author: iron monkey Subject: Upper Sultan Problems Posted: 27 Apr 2016 at 3:50pm Just gonna throw this out there... Coming from a long time paddling in the southeast home of ELFin, dam releaeses and southern hospitaility, the posts on PP regarding the first Sultan releases were not very inclusive and encouraging for people to show up. The gist of those were: Show up with your crew ready to handle your shuttle and your sh*t, dont get in trouble and mess it up for the rest of us. I understand making a good event free showing for the Snopud, I understand being compentent and taking care of bizness, but the exclusionary tone certainly made me not wanna show up an go boat. A shame since I have been wanting to hit this since living on the East coast and first seeing the video of the landslide. One reason boating is so strong in the SE, lotsa dam release runs, anybody can show up, hook up and have fun. A lot of diverse people boating, not everyone has a crew built up from years of adventuring together. There's really not a lot of boaters out here so I dont get the Seattle freeze/chill or whatever it is.	Professor Paddle	Washington, Oregon and vicinity

Whitewater Forum : Upper Sultan Problems	Author: BIGWATER Subject: Upper Sultan Problems Posted: 27 Apr 2016 at 4:57pm So I think this thread is getting a little off track. It's not about east vs west or anything like that. It's about the fact that Tom has put years into makeing this release happen, and all his work is being compromised by people registering and not showing up. If you register you must show up, end of story. If no on registers the PUD doesn't waste water and man hours (money going down the drain in there eyes). I'm sure a lot of work went into organizing the Robe race, but we are talking weeks not years. As far as time of year April is good as it's often a time between winter rains and spring melt (not this year) and it corresponds with fish flows. The first release had 70 people the second had 2 (would have been 3 if I had waited another 30 or 40 mins) , which is technically not enough to justify releaseing and paying 4 guys on a Saturday. We need to put our own issues and ideas aside and understand that this is a privilege that Tom has worked very hard for and we need to respect that. Thanks again Tom and I hope I have the chance to run the Sultan again.	Professor Paddle	Washington, Oregon and vicinity
