From: Ruggerone et al. 2010. Magnitude and trends in abundance of hatchery and wild pink salmon,chum salmon and sockeye salmon in the North Pacific Ocean. Marine and Coastal Fisheries: Dynamics, Management and Ecosystem Science. (2) 306-328. and Pinsky et al. 2009. Range-wide selection of catchments for Pacific salmon conservation.

What to Do?

As Members of Public We Have a Say What Can We do to Keep State Salmon Motivated?

  • Continued Vigilance – No More Area Plan Sneak

Attacks;

  • No mining / mineral exploration
  • Expansion of Special Use Areas
  • Instream Flow Reservations
  • Mineral Closing Orders

Good For Salmon

  • Corporate shareholder base is connected

culturally and historically to salmon;

  • Many shareholders commercially fish;
  • Many shareholders subsistence fish;
  • A “Fish First” Bristol Bay Vision Statement;
  • Salmon / Culture camps, Fly Fishing

Academy;

  • BBNC investing in sport fishing industry
slide-26
SLIDE 26

Not So Good for Salmon

  • Corporation Structure – Salmon don’t feed the

bottom line or pay dividends

  • Founding shareholders dying off
  • New corporate ownership and leadership less

connected culturally and historically to salmon

  • Share dispersal: more shareholders with fewer

shares

  • Majority of shareholders / shares out of region
  • Possibility of going public in future
  • Possibility of bankruptcy

What to Do?

Provide Corporate Salmon Love Incentives

  • Conservation Easements –limited

development, retain ownership, Shareholder Permanent Funds

  • Combination of Cash and Tax Deductions under

new IRS incentives for ANCSA corporation donations of conservation easements
