The Nevada Board of Wildlife Commissioners is sponsoring a meeting to discuss trash laws specific to Washoe, Carson and Douglas counties in Nevada, and potential solutions to any perceived deficiencies in those laws.

The meeting is Sept. 10 at 5pm at the Tahoe Center for Environmental Sciences, Rooms 139, 141, 291 Country Club Drive, Incline Village.

The committee will hear a presentation of the Bear Smart Community program that has been used to address bear-related conflicts in other communities. The committee will take input from the public and discuss the potential for establishing a similar program in Nevada.
