Willapa Bay Salmon Management Policy (C-3622) Comprehensive Review Fish and Wildlife Commission – Fish Committee Meeting
Director’s Conference Room, December 13, 2018

The Willapa Bay Salmon Management Policy (C-3622) was adopted by the Fish and Wildlife Commission (FWC) in June 2015. The adaptive management section of Policy C-3622 directed staff to provide a comprehensive review on the implementation and performance of the policy upon the completion of phase one (e.g. 2019). The review will focus on whether the provisions of the Policy were implemented and whether the stated purpose and objectives of the Policy were successfully achieved.

The intent of this review was to assist the Commission in their evaluation of a) whether the Policy was successful in achieving the stated objectives, principles, and provisions; b) areas where the Policy failed or has not been working well, and c) to provide information that might help explain reasons why these potential outcomes may have occurred. The intent can be abbreviated as follows: Has the Policy been implemented as written, and what has occurred as a result of Policy changes?
