Governor Steve Beshear recently reappointed Campbellsville urologist James R. Angel to a second consecutive four-year term on the Kentucky Fish and Wildlife Commission. Angel, who has a lifelong commitment to bettering the fish and wildlife resources of the state, also served on the commission from 1989 through 1993.

Angel represents the Fourth District on the commission, which includes Adair, Barren, Cumberland, Edmonson, Grayson, Green, Hardin, Hart, Larue, Marion, Metcalfe, Monroe, Nelson, Taylor and Washington counties.

Nine members on the Kentucky Fish and Wildlife Commission represent the hunters, anglers and boaters of the state. Candidates are nominated to serve on the commission during public meetings held once every four years within each district represented. The names of up to five nominees for each district are provided to the governor, who appoints the representative.
