Todd -
Still confused. The only suit (fall/winter of 2001?) that I remember was the one against the co-manager's Puget Sound Harvest management plan that WT settled with NMFS after the Feds agreed to go to a full blown EIS regarding the management plan. The 2002 and 2003 seasons were to go forward under the original plan (modified for conditions appropriate for that year's run sizes) with the EIS completed for the 2004 season.

Some folks thought that was just a commerical fishery plan but it was much more than that.
