Jacob..you better dig a little deeper..Gov Locke allocated only $150,000 in the budget. The estimated cost of the monitoring is around $750,000. There is a major shortfall at this time. Gov Locke simply did what was politically expedient and not adequate. I'm not sure why the fish counting to verify run size is so costly since I always thought the Muckleshoots counted at the locks so they could make sure to justify their net fishery. This merits keeping a close eye on it and staying vigilant or we will get bent over by the tribes again.
