It means that there won't be a commercial NI fishery on LW sockeye. Of course, since the run is tanking, there likely won't be any fisheries but the recs get 100% of nothing. Plus, the money spent on the hatchery was City of Seattle Mitigation monies.

The intent, now, is that Baker, Lake WA, Sutherland, and Cushman will be prioritized for NI sport.

Fraser origin pink, chum, and sockeye will continue to be commercial priority. One needs to watch Fraser fisheries because if they ever fish Early Stuart in the Straits, that will hit Lake Washington and Baker sockeye. The sockeye and pink fisheries will also hit the PS pinks, but they would be "incidental". Given the slight timing separations, the early pink harvests are where PS stocks get hit.

Fishing in 7 and 7A ( the commercial areas) is a way to strongly minimize interceptions of PS stocks.
