Commissioner Richard Rogers/Pacific Earth Resources/Pacific Sod/Pacific Arbor Nursery

[PAL]

I have it on good authority that Rogers' companies have been fined - multiple times - for violating environmental regulations. Maybe a crack internet researcher will get the details...

If we could find some dirt on Dick Rogers quickly that might be enough to get him black balled from his future appointed DFG position.

Flush him down Jerry Brown...Dick Rogers is gonna give you and your office a black eye.
**I hope Richard Rogers has to reapply for the position online. I'd like to know how he answers questions #21, 23, 25, 26, 28, 30, 31 & 33 on the e application?!
Sounds like material misrepresentation and/or bold face lies to me.

Thats the problem in a nutshell......

Richard Rogers is a hack.
Hack: a professional who renounces or surrenders individual independence, integrity, belief, etc., in return for money or other reward in the performance of a task normally thought of as involving a strong personal commitment.

Richard and Elizabeth Rogers Have contributed umpteen thousand dollars to the Republican party for decades and that is why they are both Arnold appointees.Elizabeth contributes to both parties. They have benefited financially very well from insider contracts also over the decades.. If we had a governor that protected recreational fishing rights so also would Rogers. If we have a governor that opposes recreational fishing so would Rogers.

Arnold wanted the MLPA to be his legacy, so of course Rogers supported that.
Brown might appoint a hack or worse - a full blown enviro wacko...
Hopefully Governor Brown will include the MLPA in his supposedly massive budget cuts and buy us some time

Make no mistake , Fishermen vs Enviro's is a small portion of your neck that is being strangled here.
This is about Conservative vs Liberal. And Republican doesnt mean Conservative...Liberal almost always means wacko.
This is about "The Commissioners' ultimate decisions reflecting the wishes, needs and desires of all those who enjoy these resources with the interest, understanding and involvement of everyone who appreciates our magnificent fish and wildlife resources" vs hacks.

Choose your candidates wisely...

Thus endeth my sermon.....

Has cost them dearly and will continue to do so. Damn I wish I had went to Law School...;

Multiple violations for Mr. Rogers' neighborhoodwink.

Hey, uh, Mr. Rogers, is it ok if I call you Dick?

Anyway, do you think it is ok to pollute the air, after all, it won't have any damaging effects on the ocean, will it?

Dick, do you understand what Conflict of Interest means?

Dick, did you get any kickback for not only showing up at the meetings, but being the deciding vote?

And, Dick, would you be willing to provide your financial records, including gifts, write-offs, meals provided, etc...?

And, Dick, would you say your business is compliant with CA regulations?

Dick, would you say that you most represent this fair and open process, with an unbiased agenda, in spite of the fact that you are associated with a business (or businesses) that routinely do not abide by CA EPA guidelines?

Last but not least, did you think it was in the best interests of the common taxpayer to foot the bill for the presence of multiple DFG wardens at the meetings being that the whole purpose of the MLPA meetings was to ensure the management of fisheries and the protection of said fisheries, and did any of these DFG personnel act in any capacity as escorts, bodyguards, protection, as you left the meeting?
