Oregon State Police: Fish and Wildlife Division
Primary Outcome Area: Responsible Environmental Stewardship
Secondary Outcome Area: Healthy and Safe Communities
Program Contact: Captain Casey Thomas, 503-841-4614
Program Overview
The Fish and Wildlife Division is the second largest sworn Division (126 sworn members, and 2 non-sworn) in the Oregon State Police and provides
statewide natural resource protection and rural law enforcement services. The mission of the Division is to enforce and assure compliance with the laws
that protect and enhance the long-term health and equitable use of Oregon’s fish and wildlife resources and the habitats upon which they depend. Equally
important is service to the public, public safety, and enforcement of all criminal, traffic, boating safety and all-terrain vehicle laws. The Fish and Wildlife
Division is the criminal law enforcement arm for Oregon’s other natural resource agencies, supporting the shared mission of protecting and enhancing
Oregon’s natural resources and the environment.
Program Funding Request
The Fish and Wildlife Division funding request at Agency Request Budget for the 2023-25 Biennium is $11,955,603(GF), $11,561,965(LF),
$36,676,218(OF), and $3,076,371(FF). Total funds request for Fish and Wildlife Division is $63,270,157.

Program Description
The Oregon State Police is statutorily mandated to enforce the fish, wildlife and commercial fishing laws. To accomplish this mandate, the Fish and
Wildlife Division provides year-round enforcement, which protects Oregon’s natural resources and environment for the benefit of all Oregonians and
visitors. The Division’s mission is accomplished through land, water and air patrols, as well as through public education, outreach efforts and
coordination with related natural resource user groups, including those representing the commercial fishing industry, angling and hunting organizations.
The major cost drivers to the Division are personnel costs, fuel, and equipment (patrol trucks, boats and aircraft).
The Division’s largest funding partner is the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW), accounting for 60 of the Division’s 126 sworn full-time
positions. Division members meet yearly with ODFW biologists to develop annual Cooperative Enforcement Plans, which focus monthly patrol efforts
on prioritized fish and wildlife species of concern. Besides critical enforcement efforts, Division members also work with ODFW on policy issues,
regulation development, and public outreach and education programs.
Program Justification and Link to 10-Year Outcome
The Fish and Wildlife Division enforces and assures compliance with the laws, rules and regulations which protect and enhance Oregon’s natural
resources and environment. Through these enforcement protection efforts the Fish and Wildlife Division also assists other natural resource agencies in
accomplishing the goals and objectives of their missions. Protection of natural resources and the environment helps to ensure healthy stocks of fish and
wildlife are prevented from becoming endangered or federally listed. Such listings could have detrimental effects on local and statewide economies.
The Division’s continued effective enforcement of Oregon’s natural resource laws maintains a healthy environment and prevents environmental
degradation and the associated high cost of restoring that environment for every citizen and visitor of Oregon (present and future) to benefit from a
healthy environment.
Members of the Fish and Wildlife Division are also fully trained Oregon State Police troopers who enforce all laws in Oregon and are often the first law
enforcement personnel to respond to an emergency, particularly in rural parts of Oregon. Division troopers respond to general law complaints, as well
as handle all types of traffic related activities including traffic crashes and removing intoxicated drivers from Oregon’s roadways.
Program Performance
Table 1 below shows that Oregon’s population is steadily increasing while the Division’s sworn staff has been has decreased or stayed stable, with a
noticeable uptick in 2019 with the establishment of five new positions through the Anti-Poaching campaign. The Division serves all of Oregon’s
population, which in 2021 was approximately 4.2 million people. Comparing population estimates to the Division’s 2021-23 Agency Request Budget
equates to a service unit cost of approximately $13.61 per person.

2023-25 Funding Proposal Compared to 2021-23
In Agency Request Budget the Fish and Wildlife Division requested additional positions authority in Federal Fund Policy Option Package 118 - F&W
Fish & Wildlife staffing due to an error that occurred during the 2021-23 policy package process where funding was restored to the Fish and Wildlife
Division, however position authority did not come with the return of the funding. The division also is requesting the rollover of Other Fund limitation
in Policy Option Package 119 – F&W Aircraft and Vessel OF Limitation due to procurement processes this process has taken longer than expected in
the current biennium.

Fish and Wildlife Division Narrative
The primary mission of Oregon State Police, Fish and Wildlife Division is to ensure compliance with laws and regulations that protect and
enhance the long-term health and equitable utilization of Oregon’s fish and wildlife resources and habitats upon which they depend. The
primary responsibility of the Fish and Wildlife Division is protection of natural resources by enforcing fish, wildlife and commercial
fishing laws. Members of the Fish and Wildlife Division also provide rural law enforcement services by enforcing traffic, criminal,
boating, all-terrain vehicle, livestock and environmental protection laws, in addition to responding to emergency situations.
Oregon’s environment and natural resources are an essential part of what makes Oregon a special place. Nearly every business in Oregon
understands the importance of prosperous wildlife and how a clean environment enhances our economy and our quality of life. The Fish
and Wildlife Division contributes a degree of stability to the State’s economy by enforcing laws which protect and govern the utilization
of Oregon’s natural resources. Fishing, hunting, shellfish gathering and wildlife viewing related recreational expenditures) in Oregon
provided over 1 billion dollars to the economy in 2020 alone. The commercial fishing industry is also dependent on enforcement to
ensure long-term stability of the industry and an economic base to Oregon’s coastal communities.
The Oregon State Police has developed an overall strategic plan to guide the agency into the future. The Fish and Wildlife Division is an
integral component of the plan and has developed a Division plan that complements it. Each year, the Fish and Wildlife Division enters
into a Cooperative Enforcement Planning (CEP) agreement, specifically with the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW).
Through planning and coordination, specific natural resource and other issues and concerns are identified. The Fish and Wildlife Division
troopers then develop plans to address issues throughout the year. At the end of a plan, an after action report is written to report on the
degree of success of the plan(s).
The Fish and Wildlife Division uses two key performance measures to guide enforcement activities that assist with meeting fish and
wildlife biological management goals; (1) Increase interactions/contacts with anglers and hunters in order to educate sportspersons while
also deterring and detecting violations of fish and wildlife laws; and (2) Improve detection of illegally harvested fish and wildlife species.
Combating illegal harvest of Oregon’s fish and wildlife resources is the primary mission of the Fish and Wildlife Division.
The Fish and Wildlife Division also plays an important role in protecting the environment and achieving the goals of the Oregon Plan.
Eleven positions are assigned to work enforcement issues relating to the Oregon Plan, which is designed to restore and protect native fish
and wildlife, watershed and water quality in Oregon. Fish and Wildlife troopers have been strategically assigned to locations (watersheds)
in which their primary duties are the protection and enhancement of Oregon’s salmon and healthy streams through enforcement of laws
and administrative rules.

2023-25
With Oregon’s expanding population expecting to utilize a finite, and in some cases, a declining natural resource base, enforcement
protection of Oregon’s fish and wildlife resources is critical. Although partnerships with other state and federal natural resource agencies
has always been common practice, those partnerships have been enhanced and expanded as resource managers turn to enforcement for
assistance in the protection of sensitive, threatened or endangered species and habitats. Increasingly, the Division is called upon to
investigate natural resource violations, including fill and removal, water quality and quantity, and forest practices. The Fish and Wildlife
Division has evolved into filling the role of a full service natural resource enforcement agency and is the criminal enforcement arm for
Oregon’s natural resource agencies.
The Fish and Wildlife Division has strategically stationed 126 sworn Oregon State Police officers who have special training in fish and
wildlife enforcement throughout the State of Oregon. These officers could potentially be the only law enforcement available in some of
our more rural communities throughout Oregon.
The Fish and Wildlife Division has four aircraft based in strategic locations throughout the state. The primary mission of the aircraft
program is to assist with fish and wildlife management and enforcement through aerial flights. When the pilots are not flying enforcement
missions they partner with ODFW biologists to provide angling census and wildlife survey flights to assist ODFW staff with meeting their
agency mission; or work in the field conducting enforcement patrols by more standard means of transportation.
The Fish and Wildlife Division has five investigators and an investigating sergeant assigned to its Special Investigations Unit, which is
responsible for conducting in-depth and complex investigations of individuals or groups in violation of the fish and wildlife laws, guide-
outfitter and charter vessel laws, and regulations with specific emphasis on those violators that are flagrantly or illegally commercializing
our state’s fish and wildlife resources. The Special Investigations Unit has been very successful in prosecuting several high profile cases
including the first racketeering case in the United States involving wildlife offenses as the predicate offense. One of the investigators in
the Special Investigation Unit has been assigned to work with the Department of Environmental Quality. As an investigator, this member
conducts criminal investigations relating to violations of environmental laws.
The Fish and Wildlife Division also has a Marine Fisheries Team, comprised of seven troopers and one sergeant stationed along the coast
of Oregon. The team is responsible for recreational and commercial fishery enforcement in inland and coastal waters and is also the
operators and crew of the Division’s large offshore patrol vessel named the “Guardian”. The team focuses on state and federal fishery
regulation enforcement and works closely with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, National Marine Fisheries Service
Office of Law Enforcement through a joint enforcement agreement.

Oregon State Police - Fish and Wildlife Division
Policy Option Package (POP): 118
POP Titles: Fish and Wildlife staffing
Total Request: $177,837 Federal Funds
Purpose:
The purpose of this policy option package (POP) is to request authority for one (1) non-sworn FTE for support of Fish and Wildlife Division
administration.
How Achieved:
Prior to the 2021-23 biennia, the Oregon State Police Fish and Wildlife Division (OSPFWD) was providing federal funding for a non-sworn
position located in the Oregon State Police Central Records section. In the 2021-23 LAB, the federal funding was restored to the Fish and Wildlife
Division, however position authority did not come with the return of the funding. Position authority approval would achieve this policy option
package.
Staffing Impact:
This request for position authority would add 1.00 FTE/1 position (Admin) in the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) as
OSPFWD already has the Federal limitation.

Oregon State Police - Fish & Wildlife Division
Policy Option Package (POP): 119
POP Title: Aircraft and Guardian OF Limitation
Total Request: $2,100,000 Other Funds
Purpose:
The purpose of this policy option package (POP) is to request one-time limitation approval to expend Other Funds toward the purchase of a
replacement aircraft in Eastern Oregon, Replacement of the aircraft is requested to be of newer make and different configuration than current
aircraft stationed in Baker City. This package also requests one-time funding be carried forward from 2021-23 POP#114 to replace the Long-
Range Ocean Patrol Vessel, deemed the “Guardian” - due to Covid-19 supply chain issues and backlog in manufacturing not being able to
complete in 2021-23.
Aircraft Replacement:
The Oregon State Police Fish and Wildlife Division (OSPFWD) has four aircraft stationed around the state to accomplish missions for wildlife
enforcement, wildlife management (in collaboration with the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW)), and to support other Agency
needs as they arise. These aircraft make up the only Aviation Unit within the Oregon State Police, and their primary purpose is to provide
statewide aerial support, patrol, surveillance and reconnaissance for all Oregon State Police Divisions and other agencies as needed. The aircraft
acts as a force multiplier by quickly and efficiently covering large areas with limited resources while providing a bird’s eye view to gather
necessary information.
The current aircraft stationed in Baker City is an ageing 1982 Cessna 185 “tail-dragger”. The airframe is relatively high hours (6000+), and the
avionics, while still in wide use, do not offer the situational awareness and overall safety and accuracy of the newer avionics in our other three
aircraft. Also, newer aircraft come equipped with an auto-pilot system allowing our pilots to more safely divide their attention between the
operation of the aircraft and looking out over the ground during operations. Additionally, tail-wheel aircraft operations come with higher liability
and require a highly skilled and confident pilot, with specialized training, for safe operation. Finding or training a competent tail-wheel pilot to fill
the Baker City position would be extremely difficult and come with high risk and cost to the Department. Lastly, the Baker City aircraft engine is
nearing the end of its manufacturer recommended lifespan and the cost to replace the engine and keep this aircraft in service would be
approximately $70,000 (and take possibly a year to complete with supply chain issues).
A reliable aircraft provides a unique enforcement and wildlife management platform to operate from. Positive outcomes include:
• Prompt and efficient enforcement related coverage of large and remote areas, with limited resources, equaling personnel time/cost savings
while lessening miles/hours placed on vehicles, boats and ATV’s.
• Gathering of information that may otherwise be difficult or impossible to obtain without an aerial view.
• Providing the capability to assist in managing large scale natural disasters or other significant events.
• Providing the capability to assist with Search and Rescue operations in remote areas.

• Ability to expeditiously transport personnel and resources over long distances where ground transport may not be prudent or possible.
• Providing 4-6 hour flight times with 500-700 mile range before refueling.
• Providing a quick and efficient mode of data collection for our partners at ODFW to assist in their management of Oregon’s fish and
wildlife populations.
Seeking a 2006 or newer Cessna 182 aircraft, which is estimated to cost approximately $700,000. Sale of the current Cessna 185 could provide
approximately $200,000 in additional funding. A total limitation approval of up to $900,000 would ensure ODFW funds from the sale of the
current aircraft would be fully expended first. Additionally, any additional costs, unforeseen expenditures, or rate increases would be covered and
not require additional limitation approval.
Guardian Vessel Replacement
The 2021-23 Legislative Adopted Budget provided one-time Other Funds expenditure limitation of $1,200,000 to purchase a replacement for the
agency’s one long-range ocean-going patrol vessel, known as the “Guardian.” The Other Funds revenue for this package is the fund balance from
prior asset sales and proceeds from the sale of the existing Guardian Patrol vessel.
Since the beginning of the 2021-2023 biennium the OSPFWD has been working on simultaneous RFP’s related to the patrol vessel Guardian. The
first RFP is a proposal for a new patrol vessel with similar functionality and size that will replace the current Guardian. The second proposal is to
upgrade the existing Guardian hull with new motors, electronics, and additional features. The reason for the two proposals was due to the likely
potential of a new patrol vessel exceeding the prior amount allocated for the purchase. As a contingency plan, it was decided to also complete a
second RFP for the equipment needed to bring the current Guardian up to date.
The OSPFWD submitted their proposed RFP’s to the OSP Procurement Section to finalize them in December 2021. OSP Procurement Section
has been working on the finalization of those RFP’s with DAS and DOJ and it is anticipated the RFP’s will be submitted to Oregon Buys in July
2022 to solicit responses from boat builders.
It is also anticipated by the OSPFWD that due to the current post Covid-19 supply chain issues and backlog in manufacturing the project will
continue into the 2023-2025 biennium before the project is completed no matter which direction the division ultimately decides.
How Achieved:
OSPFWD has already made the decision to “ground” the current aircraft when hours are met; and is planning to shift resources to cover the area
until funding is approved. The Division is also planning on a sale of the existing Cessna 185, and would anticipate utilizing proceeds towards the
purchase of the new aircraft. If this policy option package were approved, the acquisition process for the new aircraft would begin immediately to
ensure purchase was made in the 2023-2025 biennium.
Fish and Wildlife Division would plan to minimize the amount of down time while transitioning from the Guardian to acquisition of the new
vessel to alleviate holes in ocean patrol coverage and availability. This can be achieved by time of year (fisheries/ocean condition dependent) and
by securing a boat builder prior to sale of the Guardian.

Staffing Impact:
None.
Quantifying Results:
Aircraft Replacement:
This request links to the Interagency Agreement (IA) between the Oregon State Police Fish and Wildlife Division (OSPFWD) and the Oregon
Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW). The request also links to the Cooperative Enforcement Plan (CEP) between OSPFWD and the ODFW.
• IA – This agreement specifically outlines purpose, responsibility and statement of work. The OSPFWD is required to enforce the wildlife
laws defined in ORS, and the law enforcement activities to be carried out under this agreement are paid by ODFW directly to OSP for fish
and wildlife enforcement. OSP is required to manage the funds for maximum law enforcement effectiveness.
• CEP – The overall goal of this plan is to ensure the OSPFWD enforcement efforts are directed toward ODFW’s priorities and management
goals; and establishes enforcement priorities outlined by members of the OSPFWD and the ODFW. This plan is updated annually across
the state between the two agencies.
Guardian Vessel Replacement:
This request links to the Joint Enforcement Agreement (JEA) between the Oregon State Police Fish and Wildlife Division (OSPFWD) and the
U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC), NOAA, National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), Office of Law Enforcement (OLE). The request also
links to the Cooperative Enforcement Plan (CEP) between OSPFWD and the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW).
• JEA (federal) - This agreement specifically addresses the measurement of performance objectives. The OLE is required to conduct regular
OLE division-level inspections and reviews, and periodic on-site performance reviews of the OSPFWD in order to verify and measure the
OSPFWD’s reported activities, expenditures, and overall performance.
• CEP (state) – The overall goal of this plan is to ensure compliance with the laws and regulations that protect and enhance the long-term
health and equitable utilization of Oregon's fish and wildlife resources and the habitats upon which they depend. The specific purpose of
this plan is to establish enforcement priorities outlined by members of the OSPFWD and the ODFW.
Revenue Source:
Request Other Fund expenditure limitation to expend up to $900,000 (approx. $700k ODFW and $200k from sale of existing plane) to fund
purchase of replacement aircraft and $1,200,000 (provided in 2021-23 POP114) to be rolled forward to 2023-25 for the completion of Guardian
replacement project. Currently, no expenditures have occurred on the Guardian Replacement in 2021-23.
