This came from R6 with a model attached. Long and short the combined seasons have Chinook NOT making escapement and Chum just barely. The Chinook it is the the QIN with over 3,000 that is the driver and Chum both NT & Tribal but models out 238 above escapement. If these go forward we have a good chance not making escapement in two of three the fall salmon runs.
