A law (RCW) would trup any WDFW Policy. Policies are supposed to comply with the law.

I suspect that if a private entity was paying to operate the facility then they would dictate what and how many gets raised and released. I suspect that pinks and chums woyld be the species of choice. Really cheap to raise, produce a boatload of fish for a small amount of water, not need to operate 24/7/365.

That would "allow" WDFW to fund Chinook, coho, steelhead, and trout.
