Following up here and Chad forwarded the e mail on to me.

Hello Advisors:

Back on November 3rd, the Department closed the commercial fishery in Willapa Bay to preserve impacts on chum. This was based on pre-season forecast information. To date we have collected spawning ground data that points toward a larger than forecasted escapement and along with harvest estimates yields a larger runsize. Based on this newer information, the Department is considering re-opening the commercial fishery directed at coho. The impact rate on chum would remain below 10%.

Estimated Index Escapement (56% of Total Basin) 33,325
Estimated Total Basin Escapement 59,509
Hatchery Escapement to Date 2,250
Fishery Mortalities to Date 5,858

2016 Estimated Runsize 67,617
10% of Runsize 6,762

Remaining Allowable Harvest 904
Projected Harvest in Remaining Commercial Fishery 110
Projected Harvest in Remaining Recreational Fishery 120

Projected Final Impact Rate on Chum 9%

We would like to offer a conference call this afternoon at 4PM for those who can make it and are interested in talking through the details. We are sorry for the short notice.
