§ 57.6. Restocking after fish kills.

 (a)  It is the policy of the Commission to investigate fish kills, seek restitution for damage from those responsible for causing or allowing fish kill and restore through stocking, if necessary, or natural means, those recreational fisheries affected by a significant kill.

 (b)  If stocking is deemed necessary as determined by fisheries management personnel, it will receive a higher priority than those stockings of a normal maintenance or introductory effort and will occur when conditions are deemed suitable for restocking. The species, size and numbers of fish to be stocked will be determined by fisheries management and will be governed by hatchery availability.
