In addition to the town hall meetings, members of the public have until Aug. 31 to comment on the hatchery system or fish stocking program by e-mailing comments to DFG Director Ryan Broddrick at director@dfg.ca.gov, submitting comments to the DFG Web site at http://www.dfg.ca.gov/lands/fh/hatcheryplan.html, or posting a letter to DFG Director Ryan Broddrick at 1416 Ninth St., 12th Floor, Sacramento, CA 95814.
