Expenditures for wildlife water developments, a report on the search for a new Wildlife Director, and season setting for waterfowl are among the agenda items that the Nevada Board of Wildlife Commissioners will consider at their meeting Aug 4-5 in Winnemucca.

The commission will convene at 1:30 p.m. Aug. 4 in the Winnemucca Convention Center. Its first action item is the development of a process to recruit a new department Director/Commission Secretary for the Nevada Department of Wildlife; Terry Crawforth retired as director July 15.

Another action item is the approval of the expenditure of $213,140 from upland game stamp revenues to fund wildlife water developments.
