Why isn’t DEEP killing more bears?
With multiple ways to prevent incidents and kill problem bears, where is the need to escalate to a bear hunt?

I wonder if CTDEEP has reported that the stormwater permit registration system, which was close to being live, is now inaccessible and they need to figure out an alternative by October. It’s one of those things no one cares about unless you deal with it.
