IF LANDLINE RESPONDENT… Is this a residential telephone? IF "YES", CONTINUE... If they are available, I’d like to speak with the youngest male aged 18 or older in your household. (IF AVAILABLE, SWITCH AND REPEAT INTRO. IF NOT AVAILABLE…) How about the youngest female aged 18 or older? (IF AVAILABLE, SWITCH AND REPEAT INTRO. IF NOT AVAILABLE, CONTINUE WITH RESPONDENT.)

  • (Chum) Salmon Bycatch in the Bering Sea Pollock Fisheries
    Summary of statewide teleconference on proposed alternatives to limit non- Chinook (chum) salmon bycatch in the Bering Sea pollock fisheries North Pacific Fishery Management Council February 24, 2012 Purpose In May 2010, North Pacific Fishery Management Council (Council) staff held a statewide teleconference to inform rural stakeholders of the alternatives that were being considered to limit non-Chinook (primarily chum) salmon bycatch in the Bering Sea pollock fisheries, and to help the public understand the Council process and ways to provide formal input to the Council. Additionally, the public was given opportunity to express concerns and ask questions of the Council analysts. A report of that call was presented at the June 2010 Council meeting in Sitka, AK. A second statewide teleconference was held on February 24, 2012, as requested by the Rural Community Outreach Committee, and directed by the Council. The purpose of this second call was again to inform the public of the alternatives under consideration to reduce non-Chinook salmon bycatch in the Bering Sea pollock trawl fisheries, to help the public understand the Council process and ways to provide formal input to the Council, and provide opportunity for the public to express concerns and ask questions of the Council analyst. Any comments and questions that resulted from this call are intended to become part of the official public record for the non-Chinook salmon bycatch action taken by the Council. Comments are incorporated into this report, which will also be provided to the Council as part of the overall outreach report at a future Council meeting.
