CHAPTER 52 - SALMON AND STEELHEAD CONSERVATION AND ENHANCEMENT

SUBCHAPTER I - GENERAL PROVISIONS

-HEAD-

Sec. 3301. Congressional findings and declaration of purpose

-STATUTE-

(a) The Congress finds and declares the following:

(1) The stocks of salmon and steelhead which originate in the

rivers of the conservation areas constitute valuable and

renewable natural resources. Many groups of commercial,

recreational, and treaty fishermen have historically depended

upon these stocks of fish for their livelihoods and avocations.

These fishery resources contribute to the food supply and

economic health of the Pacific Northwest and the Nation as a

whole, provide valuable recreational experiences for thousands of

citizens from various parts of the United States and represent a

central element of the cultures and economies of Indian tribes

and the citizens of the Pacific Northwest.

(2) Over a period of several decades, competing uses of salmon

and steelhead habitat and historical problems relating to

conservation measures, the regulation of harvest and enhancement

have depressed several of these stocks of salmon and steelhead.

(3) Improved management and enhancement planning and

coordination among salmon and steelhead managers will help

prevent a further decline of salmon and steelhead stocks and will

assist in increasing the supply of these stocks.

(4) Due in principal part to the Federal court decisions in the

United States against Washington and Sohappy against Smith, the

fishing capacity of nontreaty fishermen in the conservation areas

established by this chapter exceeds that required to harvest the

available salmon resources. This excess capacity causes severe

economic problems for these fishermen.

(5) The supply of salmon and steelhead can be increased through

carefully planned enhancement measures designed to improve the

survival of stocks and to augment the production of artificially

propagated stocks. By careful choice of species, areas, and

stocking procedures, enhancement programs can be used to -

(A) improve the distribution of fish among different groups

of treaty and nontreaty fishermen; and

(B) add stability to the treaty and nontreaty fisheries by

reducing variations in fish availability.

(b) In order to assist the harvesters of the salmon and steelhead

resources within the Columbia River conservation area and the

Washington conservation area established by this chapter to

overcome temporary dislocations arising from the decisions in the

cases of United States against Washington and Sohappy against Smith

and from other causes, this chapter authorizes the establishment of

a cooperative program involving the United States, the States of

Washington and Oregon, the treaty tribes acting through the

appropriate tribal coordinating bodies, and other parties, to -

(1) encourage stability in and promote the economic well being

of the treaty and nontreaty commercial fishing and charter

fishing industries and improve the distribution of fishing power

between treaty and nontreaty fisheries through -

(A) the purchase of nontreaty commercial and charter fishing

vessels, gear, and licenses; and

(B) coordinated research, enhancement, and management of

salmon and steelhead resources and habitat; and

(2) improve the quality of, and maintain the opportunities for,

salmon and steelhead recreational fishing.

views of interested commercial and recreational fishermen, and

other interested parties, in developing the comprehensive

enhancement plan.

(c) Scope

Each comprehensive enhancement plan, and any revisions, or

modifications of such plan, shall describe all enhancement projects

in the conservation area, and associated stocking policies (when

relevant), including any related research necessary to such

enhancement anticipated by the States and the treaty tribes (acting

through the appropriate tribal coordinating body) for a period of

at least 5 years.

(d) Standards

Each comprehensive enhancement plan shall include such standards,

restrictions, or conditions as are necessary, to assure that any

project included in the plans contributes to the balanced and

integrated development of the salmon and steelhead resources of the

area. Such standards shall include, but not be limited to

provisions designed to -

(1) assure that all commercial and recreational fishermen and

the treaty tribes shall have a reasonable opportunity to

participate in the benefits, considered as a whole, of the salmon

and steelhead resources development;

(2) minimize, to the extent practicable, significant adverse

interaction between naturally spawning and artifically (FOOTNOTE

1) propagated stocks;

(FOOTNOTE 1) So in original. Probably should be

''artificially''.

(3) ensure that all projects included within the plan are

designed to complement the contribution of sound State, Federal,

and tribal enhancement activities;

(4) ensure that all projects included within the plan are

economically and biologically sound and supported by adequate

scientific research;

(5) assure that all projects included within the plan achieve

significant benefits relative to the overall cost of each such

project;

relate to existing and future international commitments; and

(7) notwithstanding any of the above measures, provide for the

harvest of fish by treaty tribes in accordance with treaty

rights, unless agreed otherwise by the affected treaty tribes.

(e) Approval

(1) The Secretary, in consultation with the Secretary of

Commerce, shall review each comprehensive enhancement plan and

approve such plan within 120 days of the date of its receipt, if

found to be consistent with this chapter and other applicable law.

If the Secretary, in consultation with the Secretary of Commerce,

finds that a plan is not in conformity with the provisions of this

chapter or other applicable law, he shall return such plan to the

State of Washington or the State of Oregon, or both, as

Management Council and, upon request, to any other interested

person or group, and solicit and consider the comments and views

of such persons or groups with respect to the plan;

(C) undertake a biological and technical review of the plan, in

consultation with individuals who are knowledgeable with regard

to the management, conservation, enhancement, and harvest of the

salmon and steelhead resources of the area;

(D) provide a copy of the plan to and consult with the

Secretary of State and the Secretary of Commerce, with respect to

the effect of such plan on any international fisheries; and

(E) determine whether the State of Washington or the State of

Oregon, as appropriate, and the treaty tribes, acting through

their chosen agency or agencies, have the authority to carry out

the plan in accordance with this chapter, and in accordance with

standards included within the plan.

(3) The Secretary, in consultation with the Secretary of

Commerce, shall not approve a comprehensive enhancement plan unless

the State of Washington or the State of Oregon, or both, as

appropriate, and the treaty tribes, acting through the appropriate

tribal coordinating body, agree not to undertake any salmon or

steelhead enhancement project, using funds provided pursuant to

this subchapter or otherwise, that would be inconsistent with the

plan.

(4) The Secretary may not approve a comprehensive plan unless the

Secretary of Commerce concurs that such plan satisfactorily

complies with standards (1), (6), and (7) of subsection (d) of this

section.

(f) Review, modification, or revisions

Each comprehensive enhancement plan shall be reviewed

periodically. The Secretary, the Secretary of Commerce, the State

of Washington, the State of Oregon, or the appropriate tribal

coordinating body may request a review, modification, or revision

of a plan at any time. Any revision or modification of a plan,

developed and agreed to by the State of Washington or the State of

Oregon, as appropriate, and the appropriate tribal coordinating

body, shall be approved by the Secretary, in consultation with the
