This book was released on 2018 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In response to the guidelines established in the Policy for Management of Sustainable Salmon Fisheries (SSFP; 5 AAC 39.222), the Alaska Board of Fisheries (board) classified Norton Sound Subdistrict 5 (Shaktoolik) and Norton Sound Subdistrict 6 (Unalakleet) king salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha as a stock of yield concern at its January 2004 meeting. An action plan was developed by the Alaska Department of Fish and Game (department) and acted upon by the board. The board continued the Subdistrict 5 and Subdistrict 6 king salmon classification as a stock of yield concern in 2007 and adopted a king salmon management plan (5 AAC 04.395) in order to increase escapements and restore the stock to historical levels of abundance. In 2010 and 2013, the board continued the stock of concern designation and modified the management plan to provide direction for targeting commercial chum (O. keta) and pink (O. gorbuscha) salmon fisheries in times of low king salmon abundance. Gillnet mesh size restrictions and fishery closures were required to achieve the North River escapement goal in 2007, 2009, 2010, 2014, 2015 and 2018. Escapement goals were not achieved in 2008, 2012, 2013, 2016 and 2017 despite similar conservation measures. The 2011 escapement could not be determined. From 2016-2018 Subdistricts 5 and 6 king salmon stock yields have remained well below historical average (1994-1999), despite the use of specific management measures. Therefore, Subdistricts 5 and 6 king salmon continue to meet the definition for a stock of yield concern as defined in the SSFP and the department recommends continuing the stock of yield concern classification.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In response to the guidelines established in the Policy for Management of Sustainable Salmon Fisheries (SSFP; 5 AAC 39.222), the Alaska Board of Fisheries (board) classified the Norton Sound Subdistrict 5 (Shaktoolik) and Subdistrict 6 (Unalakleet) king salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha as a stock of concern, specifically a yield concern, at its January 2004 meeting. An action plan was developed by the Alaska Department of Fish and Game (department) and acted upon by the board in January 2004. The SSFP directs the department to assess salmon stocks in areas addressed during the board regulatory cycle to identify stocks of concern and in the case of Norton Sound subdistricts 5 and 6 king salmon, to reassess the stock of concern status. The board continued the Subdistrict 5 and Subdistrict 6 king salmon classification as a stock of yield concern in 2007, and adopted a king salmon management plan (5 AAC 04.395) in order to increase escapements and restore the stock to historical levels of abundance. In 2010, the board continued the stock of concern designation and modified the management plan to provide direction for prosecuting commercial chum (O. keta) and pink (O. gorbuscha) salmon fisheries in times of low king salmon abundance. Escapement goals were achieved in 2007, 2009, and 2010, but only as a result of the subsistence fishing schedule stipulated in the management plan, inriver gillnet mesh size restrictions, and early closures to subsistence and sport fisheries. Escapement goals were not achieved in 2008 and 2012 despite similar conservation measures; escapement estimates are considered incomplete for 2011. Given the continued inability to maintain near average yields despite the use of specific management measures, subdistricts 5 and 6 king salmon continue to meet the definition for a stock of yield concern as defined in the SSFP. Therefore, the department recommends continuing the stock of yield concern classification. A key challenge to fisheries management is developing strategies to allow commercial fisheries directed on chum and pink salmon while minimizing adverse impacts on reaching king salmon escapement goals and meeting subsistence needs in subdistricts 5 and 6.

This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In response to guidelines established in the Policy for the Management of Sustainable Salmon Fisheries (SSFP), the Alaska Department of Fish and Game (department) recommended that the Stikine River and Andrew Creek stocks of Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) be designated as stocks of “management concern.” A management concern is defined as “a concern arising from a chronic inability, despite use of specific management measures, to maintain escapements for a salmon stock within the bounds of the SEG [sustainable escapement goal], BEG [biological escapement goal], OEG [optimum escapement goal], or other specified management objectives for the fishery.” Escapements of Stikine River Chinook salmon have fallen below the lower bound of the existing BEG (14,000 to 28,000 fish) each of the last 5 years (2016 to 2020). Since 2016, the department has implemented conservative management measures that have been effective in reducing the harvest of Stikine River Chinook salmon. Andrew Creek is a tributary to the Stikine River located entirely within Alaska. Chinook salmon escapements to Andrew Creek have been below the BEG (650 to 1,500 fish) in 4 of the previous 5 years. It is assumed actions that have reduced the harvest of Stikine River Chinook salmon have also reduced harvest of Andrew Creek Chinook salmon.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report provides the Alaska Board of Fisheries with information on Yukon Area salmon stock status, including escapement and harvest data for the January 2023 regulatory meeting. In response to the guidelines established in the Policy for the Management of Sustainable Salmon Fisheries (5 AAC 39.222), the Alaska Board of Fisheries (board) classified the Yukon River Chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha stock as a stock of yield concern at its September 2000 work session. An action plan was developed by the Alaska Department of Fish and Game and acted upon by the board in January 2001. The status as a yield concern was continued for Yukon River Chinook salmon at the January 2004, 2007, 2010, 2013, 2016, and 2019 board meetings. Chinook salmon escapement goal performance has been mixed throughout the past 5 years (2018–2022) throughout the Alaska portion of the Yukon River drainage, but escapement goals were not met from 2020 to 2022. Conservative management actions taken inseason have included full subsistence fishery closures to protect low runs as they migrate upriver. Additionally, Yukon River summer chum, fall chum O. keta, and coho salmon O. kisutch recently experienced a drastic decline since 2020. Most escapement goals for chum and coho salmon have not been achieved since 2020 despite significant subsistence, personal use, and commercial fishing restrictions and closures. Historically, the Yukon River chum and coho salmon stocks have met or exceeded escapement goals and provided for subsistence, personal use, and commercial fisheries, with a few exceptions of decreased production in a couple tributaries.

Download or read book Northern Southeast Alaska Chinook Salmon Stock Status and Action Plan, 2022 written by Grant Hagerman and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Escapements of Chinook salmon have fallen below the lower bound of the current BEG range for Chilkat River in 3 of the past 5 years, for King Salmon River in 4 of the past 5 years, and for the Taku River in 5 of the past 5 years. In response to guidelines established in the Policy for the management of sustainable salmon fisheries (SSFP), the Alaska Department of Fish and Game (department) recommended the Chilkat and King Salmon River Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) stocks be designated as stocks of “management concern” in 2017 followed by approval from the Alaska Board of Fisheries at the 2018 Southeast and Yakutat Finfish and Shellfish meeting. In October 2020, the department recommended the continuation of stock of management concern status for the Chilkat and King Salmon Rivers and to add the Taku River Chinook salmon stock at 2021 Southeast Alaska and Yakutat meeting. A “management concern” is defined as “a concern arising from a chronic inability, despite use of specific management measures, to maintain escapements for a salmon stock within the bounds of the SEG [sustainable escapement goal], BEG [biological escapement goal], OEG [optimum escapement goal], or other specified management objectives for the fishery.” Since 2012, the department has implemented conservative management measures to reduce the harvest of the Chilkat River stock of Chinook salmon and increase escapement. Through these measures, and from actions taken to reduce the harvest of the Taku River stock of Chinook salmon, by extension, harvest on the stock of Chinook salmon from the King Salmon River may likewise have been reduced. Although these management actions have been effective at reducing overall harvest rates, the poor runs have been so low that achievement of BEGs has been problematic.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In response to the guidelines established in the Policy for the Management of Sustainable Salmon Fisheries (SSFP; 5 AAC 39.222), the Alaska Board of Fisheries (board) classified the Yukon River king salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha stock as a stock of yield concern at its September 2000 work session. An action plan was developed by the Alaska Department of Fish and Game and acted upon by the board in January 2001. The status as a yield concern was continued at the January 2004, 2007, 2010, 2013 and 2016 board meetings. The stock of yield concern for king salmon was recommended to continue at the 2018 work session. King salmon escapement goals were generally met throughout the Alaska portion of the Yukon River drainage the past 5 years (2014-2018). Conservative management actions taken inseason have contributed to achieving escapement goals. Run size has been improving since 2013, but runs are still below the 1989-1998 period when run sizes were much larger and provided unrestricted subsistence harvest and a consistent commercial harvest. King salmon runs in 2014-2016 and 2018 have shown moderate increases sufficient to provide some subsistence harvest, but not commercial harvest. The run size in 2017 was the largest since 2003 and could have provided a full subsistence harvest and a surplus available for commercial. Inseason assessment uncertainty makes it challenging to fully utilize available surpluses. Yukon River summer chum salmon (O. keta) runs have had large surpluses available for harvest the past 5 years.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Policy for the Management of Sustainable Salmon Fisheries (SSFP; 5 AAC 39.222) directs the Alaska Department of Fish and Game (department) to assess salmon stocks during Alaska Board of Fisheries (board) regulatory cycles, to identify stocks of concern and to reassess the stock of concern status for stocks previously designated. In response to the guidelines established in the SSFP (5 AAC 39.222), the Alaska Board of Fisheries (board) classified Norton Sound Subdistrict 5 (Shaktoolik) and Norton Sound Subdistrict 6 (Unalakleet) Chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha as a stock of yield concern at its January 2004 meeting. An action plan was developed by the department and acted upon by the board. The board continued the Subdistrict 5 and Subdistrict 6 Chinook salmon classification as a stock of yield concern in 2007 and adopted a Chinook salmon management plan (5 AAC 04.395) to increase escapements and restore the stock to historical levels of abundance. In 2010 and 2013, the board continued the stock of concern designation and modified the management plan to provide direction for targeting commercial chum (O. keta) and pink (O. gorbuscha) salmon fisheries in times of low Chinook salmon abundance. Gillnet mesh size restrictions and fishery closures were required to achieve the North River escapement goal in 2007, 2009, 2010, 2014, 2015, 2018, and 2019. Escapement goals were not achieved in 2008, 2012, 2013, 2016, 2017, or 2020–2022 despite similar conservation measures. The 2011 escapement could not be determined. From 2018–2022, Subdistricts 5 and 6 Chinook salmon stock yields have remained well below historical averages (1994–1999), despite the use of specific management measures. Therefore, Subdistricts 5 and 6 Chinook salmon continue to meet the definition for a stock of yield concern as defined in the SSFP and the department recommends continuing the stock of yield concern classification.

Download or read book Unuk and Chickamin Chinook Salmon Stock Status and Action Plan, 2022 written by Bo Meredith and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In response to guidelines established in the Policy for the Management of Sustainable Salmon Fisheries (SSFP), the Alaska Department of Fish and Game (department) recommended that the Unuk River stock of Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) be designated as a “stock of management concern” in October 2017. This recommendation was adopted by the Alaska Board of Fisheries (board) in January 2018. Then, in October 2020, the department recommended continuing this designation and additionally recommended that the Chickamin River stock of Chinook salmon be added as a “stock of management concern”. A “management concern” is defined as “a concern arising from a chronic inability, despite use of specific management measures, to maintain escapements for a salmon stock within the bounds of the SEG [sustainable escapement goal], BEG [biological escapement goal], OEG [optimum escapement goal], or other specified management objectives for the fishery.” The escapement of the Unuk River stock of Chinook salmon has been below the lower bound of the existing BEG (1,800–3,800 fish) in 3 of the past 5 years (2016–2020). The escapement of Chickamin River Chinook salmon has been below the lower bound of the existing BEG (2,150–4,300 fish) in 4 of the past 5 years (2016–2020). Since 2014, the department has implemented conservative management actions to reduce harvest of Unuk River Chinook salmon, and by extension and proximity to the Unuk River, it is assumed those actions have reduced harvests of Chickamin River Chinook salmon as well.
Book Synopsis Yukon River Fall Chum Salmon Stock Status and Fall Season Salmon Fisheries by : Fred J. Bue
Download or read book Yukon River Fall Chum Salmon Stock Status and Fall Season Salmon Fisheries written by Fred J. Bue and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In response to the guidelines established in the Policy for the Management of Sustainable Salmon Fisheries (SSFP; 5 AAC 39.222), the Alaska Board of Fisheries (BOF) classified the Yukon River fall chum salmon Oncorhynchus keta stock as a yield concern and classified the Toklat and Fishing Branch Rivers fall chum salmon stocks as management concerns at the September 2000 work session. An action plan was developed by the Alaska Department of Fish and Game (ADF & G) and acted upon by the BOF in January 2001. The SSFP directs ADF & G to assess salmon stocks in areas addressed during the BOF regulatory cycle to identify stocks of concern and to reassess the stock of concern status. In 2003, the department recommended continuation of the Yukon River fall chum salmon classification as a stock of yield concern, which was supported by the BOF at its January 2004 meeting. The Toklat River stock was removed as a management concern because the BOF realigned the escapement objective from an optimal escapement goal (OEG) to the established biological escapement goal (BEG) which did not fit the criteria of a management concern. However, the Toklat River fall chum salmon stock was included in the drainage-wide yield concern classification. The Fishing Branch River stock was also removed as a management concern because management of that portion of the drainage is covered by an annex to the Pacific Salmon Treaty, the U.S./Canada Yukon River Salmon Agreement (Agreement) which is governed under the authority of the Yukon River Panel (Panel). Based on the much improved run size since 2002 and large available surpluses in 2003, 2005 and 2006 being near the historical yield, the Yukon River fall chum salmon stock no longer meets the stock of yield concern criteria. Therefore, ADF & G recommends the Yukon River fall chum salmon stock no longer be considered as a stock of concern. BEGs for fall chum salmon and the Yukon River Drainage Fall Chum Salmon Management Plan were both reviewed and updated at the January 2004 BOF meeting. Escapement and harvest monitoring projects are in place to aid in managing for sustained yield objectives. Proposal 173 has been submitted to the BOF for considering changes to the Yukon River Coho Salmon Management Plan to coordinate management of the overlapping fall chum and coho salmon fisheries.
