Endangered Species Act 4(d) Rule Determination on Recreational and Tribal Fisheries in the Snake River Basin

Recreational and tribal fall Chinook salmon and coho salmon fisheries managed by the Idaho Department of Fish and Game, Oregon Department of Fish and Widlife, Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife, and the Nez Perce Tribe, and a resident trout fishery managed by the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife in the Snake River Basin. For the ESA-listed fall Chinook salmon fishery impacts to natural-origin fish are determined based on a harvest schedule that reduces impacts as natural-origin abundance decreases.
