Book Review of Salmon Escapement Goals in the Chignik Management Area  2015

Download or read book Review of Salmon Escapement Goals in the Chignik Management Area 2015 written by Kevin L. Schaberg and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 47 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In January 2015, an interdivisional team of staff from the Alaska Department of Fish and Game reviewed existing Pacific salmon Oncorhynchus spp. escapement goals in the Chignik Management Area (CMA). CMA salmon escapement goals had most recently been reviewed in 2013. In 2015, the team reviewed recent data for the 6 goals in existence to determine whether substantial new information existed. Upon this initial review, the CMA aggregate goals for even and odd year pink salmon, and chum salmon were analyzed further. The team recommends revising the CMA odd year pink salmon aggregate sustainable escapement goal (SEG) to 260,000 to 450,000 fish, the CMA even year pink salmon aggregate SEG to 170,000 to 280,000 fish, and the CMA chum salmon aggregate SEG to 45,000 to 110,000 fish. The team recommends no change to the Chinook or sockeye salmon escapement goals. No goals were eliminated and none were added for systems currently without escapement goals.

This book was released on 2021 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report summarizes statewide Pacific salmon escapement goals in effect in 2020 and documents escapements for all species and stocks with goals from 2012 through 2020. In addition, this report documents changes in escapement goals for both 2019 and 2020 because the report was not published in 2020 due to extenuating circumstances associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. Annual escapements are compared against escapement goals in place at the time to assess outcomes, with summaries by the Division of Commercial Fisheries regions. We list methods used to enumerate escapements and to develop current escapement goals (with brief descriptions) for each monitored stock. Leading up to the 2018/2019 Board of Fisheries meeting cycle, escapement goals were reviewed for the Bristol Bay, Arctic-Yukon-Kuskokwim, Alaska Peninsula/Aleutian Islands, and Chignik Management Areas. As a result of these reviews, there were 29 escapement goal changes in 2019, including the elimination of 10 goals. The remaining changes were due to updates to escapement indices and/or goal development methods. There were no changes to any escapement goals in the Chignik Management Area. For the 2019/2020 Board of Fisheries meeting cycle, escapement goals were reviewed for Upper Cook Inlet, Lower Cook Inlet, and Kodiak Management Areas. As a result of these reviews, there were 32 escapement goal changes in Upper Cook Inlet that included establishing 4 new escapement goals and eliminating 12 goals. There were no escapement goal changes for Lower Cook Inlet. Because of these revisions, there were 272 salmon escapement goals in Alaska in 2019 and 264 escapement goals in 2020. In 2019, 78% of the escapement goals in Alaska were met or exceeded and 22% of the stocks did not meet minimum escapement goals. In 2020, 65% of the escapement goals were met or exceeded and 35% of the stocks did not meet minimum escapement goals.

Book Review of Salmon Escapement Goals in the Alaska Peninsula and Aleutian Islands Management Areas  2015

Download or read book Review of Salmon Escapement Goals in the Alaska Peninsula and Aleutian Islands Management Areas 2015 written by Kevin L. Schaberg and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In January 2015, an interdivisional team, including staff from the Division of Commercial Fisheries and the Division of Sport Fish, was formed to review Pacific salmon Oncorhynchus sp. escapement goals in the Alaska Peninsula and Aleutian Islands Management areas (Area M). This review was based on the Policy for the Management of Sustainable Salmon Fisheries (5 AAC 39.222) and the Policy for Statewide Salmon Escapement Goals (5 AAC 39.223). Of the 24 existing Area M salmon escapement goals evaluated, the team recommended revising 2 goals, consolidating an even/odd year goal, and leaving the other 20 goals unchanged. After a comprehensive review of the available data, the team recommended that no changes in the current sustainable escapement goals (SEGs) were warranted for 11 sockeye salmon O. nerka systems that include runs to Orzinski, Bear (early and late run), McLees, and Thin Point lakes; Mortensens, Christianson, and Swanson lagoons; North Creek; Sandy, and Ilnik rivers. No change was recommended for the sockeye salmon biological escapement goal (BEG) at Nelson River. In addition, the team recommended no changes to the current SEGs for five chum salmon O. keta aggregates in the North and South Alaska Peninsula; and two coho salmon O. kisutch goals at Nelson and Ilnik rivers. One Chinook salmon O. tshawytscha BEG (Nelson River) also did not warrant change. The team did indicate revision of two goals (Meshik River sockeye salmon SEG 48,000 to 86,000; Cinder River sockeye salmon SEG 36,000 to 94,000), and consolidation of the even/odd year South Peninsula pink salmon O. gorbuscha pair, into an annual SEG (1,750,000 to 4,000,000).

This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report summarizes statewide Pacific salmon escapement goals in effect in 2022 and documents escapements for all species and stocks with goals from 2014 through 2022. Annual escapements are compared against escapement goals in place at the time to assess outcomes, with summaries by the Division of Commercial Fisheries regions. We list methods used to enumerate escapements and to develop current escapement goals (with brief descriptions) for each monitored stock. For the 2021–2022 Alaska Board of Fisheries meeting cycle, escapement goals were reviewed for the Southeast Region and Prince William Sound Management Area, which had been postponed from the 2020–2021 meeting cycle because of the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result of these reviews, there were 7 escapement goal changes for 2022. In the Southeast Region, 2 escapement goals were updated (1 coho and 1 sockeye salmon), and in Prince William Sound, 4 escapement goals were updated (2 coho and 2 sockeye salmon) and the Copper River Chinook salmon escapement goal was revised from a lower-bound SEG to an SEG with an upper and lower bound. The number of salmon escapement goals in Alaska remained at 264. In 2022, 67% of the escapement goals in Alaska were met or exceeded and 33% of the stocks did not meet minimum escapement goals.

Download or read book Review of Salmon Escapement Goals in Southeast Alaska 2020 written by Steven C. Heinl and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Alaska Department of Fish and Game interdivisional escapement goal review committee reviewed Pacific salmon Oncorhynchus spp. escapement goals for Southeast Alaska in August of 2019 and again early in 2020. Escapement goals were reviewed based on the Policy for the Management of Sustainable Salmon Fisheries (5 AAC 39.222) and the Policy for Statewide Escapement Goals (5 AAC 39.223) adopted by the Alaska Board of Fisheries into regulation in 2001. There is a total of 47 escapement goals in Southeast Alaska for 11 Chinook, 12 sockeye, 13 coho, 3 pink, and 8 chum salmon stocks. The Southeast escapement goal review committee recommended changes to these goals to the directors of the Divisions of Commercial Fisheries and Sport Fish as follows: (1) change the Taku River sockeye salmon sustainable escapement goal range of 71,000–80,000 fish (based on a historical dataset) to a biological escapement goal range of 40,000–75,000 fish based on a revised dataset; and (2) change the Situk River coho salmon biological escapement goal range of 3,300–9,800 fish to a sustainable escapement goal range of 3,800–9,600 fish based on percentiles of historical survey counts. Detailed analyses of Chilkoot, Speel, and Redoubt Lakes sockeye salmon escapement goals are also documented here, although the committee did not recommend changes to those goals.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Alaska Department of Fish and Game interdivisional escapement goal review committee reviewed Pacific salmon Oncorhynchus spp. escapement goals for Southeast Alaska in 2017. As of 2016, escapement goals were established for 12 Chinook, 14 sockeye, 14 coho, 4 pink, and 8 chum salmon stocks. The Southeast escapement goal review committee recommended changes to escapement goals to the directors of the divisions of Commercial Fisheries and Sport Fish as follows: (1, 2, 3) replace escapement goal ranges for Chickamin, Blossom, and Keta river Chinook salmon, which are expressed in index survey counts, with ranges expressed as total escapement; (4) eliminate the Klukshu (Alsek) River Chinook salmon goal; (5) eliminate the combined East Alsek-Doame river sockeye salmon biological escapement goal (13,000-26,000 fish) and replace it with a sustainable escapement goal (range 9,000-24,000 fish) germane only to the East Alsek River; (6) eliminate the Lost River sockeye salmon goal; (7) eliminate the Alsek River sockeye salmon goal (8); change the Berners River coho salmon biological escapement goal from 4,000-9,200 fish to 3,600-8,100 fish; (9) change the Tsiu-Tsivat river coho salmon goal from a biological escapement goal to a sustainable escapement goal while maintaining the same goal of 10,000-29,000 fish; (10) eliminate the Ford Arm Creek coho salmon goal; (11) eliminate the Situk River pink salmon goal; and (12) change the aggregate Northern Southeast Inside summer-run chum salmon lower bound sustainable escapement goal from 119,000 to 107,000 fish. As a result of these recommendations, a total of 47 Southeast Alaska escapement goals would be established for 11 Chinook, 12 sockeye, 13 coho, 3 pink, and 8 chum salmon stocks.

Download or read book Review of Salmon Escapement Goals in Southeast Alaska 2014 written by Steven C. Heinl and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Alaska Department of Fish and Game interdivisional escapement goal review committee reviewed Pacific salmon Oncorhynchus spp. escapement goals for Southeast Alaska in 2014. As specified in the Pacific Salmon Treaty, escapement goal recommendations for transboundary Alsek and Klukshu river Chinook and sockeye salmon runs underwent bilateral U.S./Canada review, and recommended changes were adopted by the Transboundary River Panel of the Pacific Salmon Commission in 2013. Thus, as of 2013, escapement goals were established for 12 Chinook, 14 sockeye, 14 coho, 4 pink, and 8 chum salmon stocks. The Southeast escapement goal review committee recommended to the directors of the divisions of Commercial Fisheries and Sport Fish that all but 5 of those escapement goals remain unchanged. The committee recommended (1) changing the Speel Lake sockeye salmon goal from a biological escapement goal range of 4,00-13,000 fish to a sustainable escapement goal range of 4,000-9,000 fish; (2) changing the Lost River coho salmon goal from a lower-bound sustainable escapement goal of 2,200 fish to a sustainable escapement goal range of 1,400-4,200 fish, and changing the name of the goal to Tawah Creek (Lost River); (3-4) increasing aggregate lower-bound sustainable escapement goals for summer-run chum salmon in the Southern Southeast and Northern Southeast Outside subregions to account for the addition of new index streams to those stock groups; and, finally, (5) changing the Chilkat River fall-run chum salmon sustainable escapement goal range of 75,000-170,000 fish to a range of 75,000-250,000 fish.
