Pyramid Fees....
I imagine the proposed fee change is designed to limit the number of fishers (all types) at the lake until some solution to the pandemic is found (vaccine, etc.). Seems that people of color are infected with COV19 strikes more often and the negative impacts are great. The prospect of requiring hospitalization from anywhere on the Rez would be costly and require lengthy transportation, especially in winter (driving on iced roads, etc.). So, maybe the loss of revenue from individual fishing permits is acceptable to the tribe....
