Gopher Tortoise Workshop

New date, time for gopher tortoise workshop

The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) has rescheduled a workshop in Wakulla County to present information on the management plan and permitting guidelines for gopher tortoises. Originally set for July 8, the workshop now will take place on Monday, July 18.

The goal of this workshop is to identify ways local governments can participate in protecting one of Florida`s threatened species. In addition, presenters will introduce other FWC programs of interest to local governments.


Representatives from neighboring counties are encouraged to attend.
The workshop is free, but registration is required. To register, please send your name and the name of your organization to Alexandra.Perryman@MyFWC.com.
