I brought my concerns to a direct NOAA-F source. Says they will be rendering an opinion on the matter later this month. He emphasized that the latest PST agreement saw AK cutting back their chinook exploitation by 7.5% and BC cutting back by 12.5%. SRKW's were a consideration in the discussion as these cutbacks were negotiated.
