I have a question regarding escapement goals. On rivers where the tribes have a say, who decides the escapement? Do the state biologists measure this and does it supercede the tribes data? Or do the tribes decide that they want to fish a river regardless of the state's opinion on it? Seems that this came into play on the OP a while back where the state had set a rather high one of several thousand fish.

The tribe countered with a lower number (something like 2200 as opposed to the states of 10,000) The state later announced that they worked an agreement with the tribe of 2,600. I am researching this because I received this info second hand.

Feel free to correct me if I am wrong.
