Support rather than opposition. It was the local Tribes that were very involved in the "cleanup" of the Atlantic escape. Commercial net pen operations are a direct economic threat to their commercial fishing in addition to ecological issues.

Many Tribes have aquaculture programs of some sort. This would be a business decision. What major watersheds do the Jamestown's have to produce salmon? I believe that the only major one is the Dungeness, and it is not putting out much.

I know many here, and all around the WA, are not happy with Tribal involvement in resource management but in my experience they do tend to represent a ecologically-based, long-term view. Still in it for the money, but money over generations and not the next election, which is what now passes for long-range planning.
