From the transcript
You know, there's quality data and those things. I think the department would agree Cook Inlet salmon aren't meeting yield requirements. We don't think they're at risk of extinction, but we certainly aren't meeting yield requirements right now. We'd like to get back to having those stocks provide yield. Thank you, Commissioner.
