Book excerpt: The 2010 Bristol Bay Area Management Report is the 49th consecutive annual volume reporting on management activities of the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, Division of Commercial Fisheries staff in Bristol Bay. The report emphasizes a descriptive account of the information, decisions, and rationale used to manage the annual Bristol Bay commercial salmon (sockeye Oncorhynchus nerka, Chinook O. tshawytscha, chum O. keta, pink O. gorbuscha, and coho O. kisutch) and Pacific herring (Clupea pallasi) fisheries, and outlines basic management objectives and procedures. We have included all information deemed necessary to fully explain the rationale behind management decisions formulated in 2010. The narrative is constructed beginning with a broad historical perspective followed by annual detail of individual districts. All narrative and data tabulations in this volume are combined in two sections, salmon followed by herring, to aid in the use of this document as a reference source. For long term context, historical data are compiled into appendices following the same format; salmon followed by herring. The extensive set of tables has been updated to record previously unlisted data for easy reference. Fisheries data in this report supersedes information in previous reports.
