I don’t know. <br /> <br />TL: Has he been a game biologist? <br /> <br />JD: Um, that was the intention in our selection criteria but I was not involved in <br />the – in any part of the selection, um, the other part about bringing him on <br />board is, um, I have been in the manager’s position for going on two years <br />– I don’t have it permanently yet, so, ah, our personnel offices are very <br />short staffed to say the least. <br /> <br />TL: Is, ah, he’s taking Ed Johnson’s place, right? <br /> <br />JD: The, yeah, the game biologist in Honolulu would be Ed Johnson’s position, <br />yeah, which I, I should probably shouldn’t speak out of term, but the, um, I <br />would expect – once that person is up to speed – that, that will probably <br />be the chairperson’s designee to the commission, I would, you know, <br />that’s what Ed Johnson’s role was in the past and I can’t speak for <br />Suzanne, but I, if I had to guess, that’s the person that would probably be <br />at the, at the meetings. <br /> <br />TL: Yeah, he got us all our plane tickets, yeah, that’s great. <br /> <br />Ike: Tom, I have some questions. <br /> <br />TL: OK. <br /> <br />Ike: As it relates to the aerial eradication process and program. Is it possible <br />for the GMAC to have briefings before the program starts so that we can <br />voice our concerns? <br /> <br />JD: I don’t see why not – that would have to be addressed with Steve and then <br />if he needs to push it up with Dave Smith. <br /> <br />Ike: OK. Could you mention that… <br /> <br />JD: Yes… <br /> <br />Ike: Thank you. <br /> <br />TL: OK. Anything else for us? <br /> <br />JD: Ah, that’s it. <br /> <br />2.
