Salmon Commission Fraser River Panel, Pacific

The Pacific Salmon Commission Fraser River Panel has special responsibility for in-season regulation of Fraser River-origin sockeye and pink salmon fisheries in southern British Columbia and northern Puget Sound.

Prior to the fishing season, the Panel recommends a fishery regime and a management plan for Panel Area fisheries to the Pacific Salmon Commission (PSC). The plan is based on abundance and timing forecasts and escapement targets for Fraser River sockeye and pink salmon stocks provided by Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO); international catch allocation goals set by the agreements between the Parties; domestic catch allocation goals of each country; management concerns for other stocks and species also identified by each country; and historic patterns in migration and fisheries dynamics. The objectives that guide the Panel's decision-making are to achieve the spawning escapement targets, meet international catch allocation goals, and meet domestic catch allocation objectives.

The United States shall be represented on the Fraser River Panel by four Panel members, of whom:

(1) one shall be an official of the United States Government, with salmon fishery management responsibility and expertise;

(2) one shall be an official of the State of Washington, with salmon fishery management responsibility and expertise, appointed by the Governor of Washington. The Governor may also designate an alternate Panel member, meeting the same qualifications and having the same term of office, to service in the absence of a Panel member

(3) one shall be appointed from a list submitted by the treaty Indian tribes of individuals with salmon fishery management responsibility and expertise for the fisheries for which the Fraser River Panel is responsible; and

(4) one shall be from the commercial sector of the salmon fishing industry concerned with fisheries for which the Fraser River Panel is responsible and shall be appointed by the US Secretary of Commerce from the list of nominations provided by the Governor of Washington. The Secretary may also designate an alternate Panel member, meeting the same qualifications and having the same term of office, to service in the absence of a Panel member.

Salmon Commission Southern Panel, Pacific

Under the terms of the Pacific Salmon Treaty, the Pacific Salmon Commission Southern Panel has responsibility for salmon originating in rivers with mouths south of Cape Caution, with the exception of Fraser River sockeye and pink salmon. The Panel is made up of no more than six representatives and alternates from each country. Membership reflects a range of governmental and fishing interests, including representatives from both the commercial and recreational fishing industries. It provides recommendations and comment on the management of the fisheries in its area of responsibility before and after each season's harvest. This is done by reviewing technical data on annual fishing plans and regulations, and the salmon enhancement programs of each country. The Panel also provides the Commission with specific recommendations for the development of fishery plans.

The United States shall be represented on the southern Panel by six Panel members, of whom:
(1) one shall be an official of the United States Government, with salmon fishery management responsibility and expertise;
(2) one shall be an official of the State of Oregon, with salmon fishery management responsibility and expertise;
(3) one shall be an official of the State of Washington, with salmon fishery management responsibility and expertise, appointed by the Governor of Washington. The Governor may also designate an alternate Panel member, meeting the same qualifications and having the same term of office, to service in the absence of the Panel member
(4) two shall be appointed from a list submitted by the treaty Indian tribes of individuals with salmon fishery management responsibility and expertise; and
(5) one shall be from the commercial or recreational sector who is knowledgeable and experienced in the salmon fisheries for which the southern Panel is responsible, and shall be appointed by the US Secretary of Commerce from the list of nominations provided by the Governors of Washington and Oregon. The Secretary may also designate an alternate Panel member, meeting the same qualifications and having the same term of office, to service in the absence of the Panel member. Fishing industry representatives shall each be appointed for one year terms; member and alternate positions shall rotate between the commercial and recreational sectors on an annual basis.
