Salmon Carcass Uses
Skokomish Tribal Nation -- $92,000 and American-Canadian Fisheries, Inc. -- $95,000 This cooperative effort will help create alternative uses for chum salmon carcasses. Historically, tribal members disposed of the carcasses directly into the marine waters of Hood Canal, after fishermen removed eggs from the carcasses. The tribe will work with American-Canadian Fisheries to use the chum salmon to feed people, add to pet food and livestock feed, and explore other commercial uses
If anyone finds tribal members dumping chum carcasses in the canal itself, I would encourage you to take pictures and document/get witnesses! This information needs to be passed to Norm Dicks office, since he was responsible for securing the grant funding for the above and has taken an active roll regarding the HC low oxygen problem. Let his office deal with the Skoks. ;\)
I have seen this last weekend but didn't have my camera
