The Chair Conservative Gerald Keddy

I call the meeting to order. We have enough people here to hear witnesses. If we don't start on time then it drags on too long.

Pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), we are studying gravel extraction and enforcement in the Fraser River. We have three witnesses here from the Department of Fisheries and Oceans: Mr. Paul Sprout, regional director general of the Pacific region; Mr. Jim Wild, area director, lower Fraser, Pacific region; and Ginny Flood, the acting director general of habitat management.

Welcome to our witnesses.

I'll ask you to proceed. You have ten minutes.
