Description:"The Proposed Action is to develop the 2016 ocean salmon management measures for West Coast salmon fisheries. In 2016, two coastal coho stocks have abundance projections that do not meet escapement objectives in the Salmon Fishery Management Plan, even without fishing. Two additional coho stocks have projected abundance that is extremely close to their FMP escapement goal. Alternatives are considered that would minimize fishery impacts to these stocks. The action would be consistent with conservation objectives in the current Salmon Fishery Management Plan, with the exception of the four coho stocks mentioned above, and current Endangered Species Act (ESA) Biological Opinions that cover proposed fishing levels on all ESA-listed salmon and steelhead, as well as impacts on marine mammals. No significant impacts are anticipated"--Cover letter summary.
