You definitely missed something if you think they purposely don't make decisions. The Cameron-Creole Advisory Committee, which CPRA is not on, calls the shots; all CPRA can do is advise. CPRA wouldn't even be in that position if USFWS, who is on the Committee, had a backbone and didn't give up operational control over the weirs.

Don't let Chuck fool you. He tried to paint it like they were given control because it fell in their realm of expertise. That is not the case. CPRA became a separate entity from DNR in late 2005. They didn't assume their current "position" in regards to the Cameron-Creole until 2012. Know why? Cause USFWS had control, and got tired of taking all the flack from crabbers, shrimpers, and fishermen. So they said, find a new person to operate the weirs, we're taking our ball and going home.
