Bill Walker\u2019s office announced on May 20 that Robert Mumford has been appointed to the vacant seat on the Alaska Board of Fisheries.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am pleased to announce Bob Mumford as my appointee to the Board of Fish,\u201d Walker said. \u201cHis vast range of experience in multiple fields \u2014 as a commercial pilot, hunting instructor and fish and game State Trooper \u2014 has taken him all over the state.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mumford is making a lateral move from one board to another after being denied a reappointment by Walker earlier this year. He currently serves on the Board of Game, and his term is set to expire June 30. Kip Fanning was confirmed by the Legislature to replace Mumford on April 19.<\/p>\n<p>According to a Boards and Commissions applicant listing, Mumford submitted his application for Board of Fisheries appointment on April 22, three days after the Legislature confirmed Fanning and rejected previous Board of Fisheries nominee Robert Ruffner on April 19.<\/p>\n<p>Mumford told the Peninsula Clarion May 19 he did not have one specific issue he was looking forward to tackling.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRight now, it is going to be studying up on a lot of issues that are going on right now. It\u2019ll take me a little bit to get up to speed, although I\u2019ve tried to follow the politics of it,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Mumford, an Anchorage resident, became an Alaska State Trooper in 1982 and served in the Fish Wildlife Protection Division from 1984 through 2002. Since then, he has served as a security contractor for Alaska Native regional corporation subsidiary Doyon Universal Services and on the Big Game Commercial Services Board as a liaison to Wildlife Troopers.<\/p>\n<p>Walker\u2019s latest pick said he was looking forward to serving on the board. He will not be subject to a confirmation vote until the 2016 session of the Legislature, meaning he will serve through the 2015-16 meeting cycle.<\/p>\n<p><em>Due to copyright law, the Alaska Salmon Alliance cannot repost full articles.
