Rivrguy, in rivers where the run is forecasted to make the escapement goal, then you're right, every effort will be made to make sure not one more than that spawns...but that's not what we're talking about if we're talking ESA fish on the LCR, none of which are anywhere near escapement, and aren't likely to ever be without significant improvements in habitat/hydropower...salmon, at least.

Fish on...
