I have been thinking about this for the past year or two. Considering all the budget constraints with the DEP - why not produce revenue by updating and adding to the CT Lakes and Pond Book ? I am sure a new updated and improved version would sell quite well.
The latest version is dated 2002 - is there info on how much revenue was produced in sales of the book ?
The data is already there as well as the existing info. All that would need to be done is update the book, maybe add some bodies of water and a maybe a feature or two.
I know I would pay 20-30 bucks for an updated book, especially if I knew all the money went to the DEP..
