The use of safety glasses and proper lighting devices is also a good safety measure, he said. “Use the lighting punks that they give you,” Nickles said. “I have seen people use a small torch be- fore, which works, but you have to be careful that nothing tips over or anything like that.” The dry conditions have also sparked some concern. In a recent press release, Assis- tant Chief of Operations for South Dakota Division of Wildfire Sup- pression Jim Strain said the the possibility of fireworks displays causing fast-moving wildfires has increased significantly because of recent hot and dry weather in parts of the state. The current fire danger is expected to be in the moderate or above category, he said and is asking residents and visitors to the state to use extreme precautions when shooting fireworks. Strain said one of the most dan- gerous types of fireworks is bottle rockets, because of the debris, and said people should pay close atten- tion when using those fireworks. If a fire does start, Nickles said it should be called in right away. “Don’t run off and leave it,” he said. “We’ve had that happen sev- eral times, where a fire starts and people leave and don’t report it. We understand that it’s an accident if a fire starts and that it’s going to happen.” It is also a good idea to take a shovel or when people do shoot off fireworks, in case a fire does start, to put it out. Yankton County Sheriff Jim Vla- hakis said people should be aware of where they are shooting fireworks. “Most of the state parks don’t allow it,” he said. “It is also a crime to shoot fireworks out of cars. Throwing any burning object from a motor vehicle is a crime, and the crime is dangerous.” Throwing fireworks from a vehi- cle, shooting them at people or shooting them at vehicles or struc- tures is also illegal, he said. In the Yankton area, people will shoot a lot of fireworks in the river area, Nickles said. “People will go out on the sand- bars and things like that to shoot fireworks,” he said. “Actually, the conditions are right for that right now, because people can get out and stand on the sandbars.” Nickles said shooting in the campground areas is not allowed by state policy, and shooting off the face of the dam is not allowed by Corps policy. Nickles biggest concern other than general firework safety is for people to use caution about where they shoot their fireworks and how they use them. “We don’t want any property damage and we’d like to have our firefighters enjoy the 4th of July weekend too, not just out chasing fires the whole weekend,” he said. “They’ll be there when we need them, though.” from common bait species. “We realize the emergency rul- ing is affecting anglers,” he said. “However, it is a necessary step to help protect the integrity of re- sources and the health of fish- eries in the area.” Geno Adams, Fisheries Pro- gram Administrator for the GF&P, hopes the ruling will have a sig- nificant impact on the Asian Carp. “I hope the ruling will inhibit the movement of Asian Carp,” he said. “This is a new and upcom- ing Aquatic Nuisance Species in South Dakota that is spreading in- credibly rapidly.” He noted that Asian Carp are such a big problem because they eat many of the same things that other young species also feed on. Because of this, they have a huge impact on other species’ populations. The Silver and Big Head Carp are known to feed on Zooplank- ton in lakes and rivers, some- thing that other fish species rely on for food. “When the Asian Carp eat enough Zooplankton, it becomes unavailable to other fish species who have poor natural produc- tion,” Lott said. “This causes the population of Asian Carp to go up, and other species’ popula- tions to go down.” Lott added, once Asian Carp are introduced, they become very difficult to get rid of, not only because they can spread so rapidly, but also because they are very prolific reproducers — some female Asian Carp can have up to 4 million eggs, compared to up to 100,000 on a Walleye. In addition to the ecological problems that Asian Carp pres- ent, they also pose an injury risk to citizens out on local bodies of water. “Asian Carp are known to jump out of the water if they are startled,” Lott said. “This is a safety issue and can cause seri- ous injury to people on boats and in the water.” However, officials in South Dakota are hoping the steps being taken in the state will help to solve the problem. Officials hope that, in addition to laws and regulations, informa- tion and education will help the problem. “Knowing about the issue and its importance of stopping the spread of Asian Carp to children in schools and anglers is huge,” Lott said. He added that each year has the potential to have strong pro- duction of Asian Carp. Adams agreed, adding, “Edu- cation and outreach is huge to stop the spread.” He noted the importace of an- gling in South Dakota. “Angling is important to local economies,” he said. “Asian Carp can do a number on fish popula- tions, so there are a lot of rea- sons to care about stopping them from spreading.” Adams noted that other states have had to result to more des- perate, and more costly, meas- ures to deal with the problem. He’s hoping that steps being taken now will be enough to stop the Asian Carp from spreading any further in the state. “Other states, including Illi- nois, are spending millions of dol- lars to stop the spread,” he said. “It is in the best interest of every- one in South Dakota not to have to do that.” He went on to say the sport fishing industry in Illinois has taken a huge hit because of the Asian Carp, and hopes that does not happen in South Dakota. “People should take this seri- ously,” Adams added. Anglers who observe or cap- ture a Silver or Bighead Carp out- side of the James, Vermillion and Big Sioux Rivers, and below Gavins Point Dam, are encour- aged to report their findings to the GF&P website or by calling their local GF&P office.
