I would not expect NOAA, by themselves, to relax the management objectives that would allow more for more fishing during their own review of the Plan. However, they may require additional restrictions if they feel that protections for some populations are inadequate. The comanagers would need to request an adjustment to the Plan they originally provided which allow for more fishing and for NOAA to consider these new provisions in their evaluation of whether the overall plan meets conservation/recovery objectives in salmon fisheries. It may be tricky to get the comanagers to agree with these kind of adjustments to the Plan. A request from just WDFW and/or the Commission is unlikely to be recognized or considered by NOAA.
