5 Copper River Fishery Management
6 The mission of the Division of Commercial Fisheries is to manage, protect, rehabilitate, enhance, and develop fisheries consistent with the sustained yield principle and subject to allocations established through public regulatory processes.
7 Management Plans 5 AAC COPPER RIVER DISTRICT SALMON MANAGEMENT PLAN 5 AAC COPPER RIVER CHINOOK SALMON FISHERY MANGEMENT PLAN These plans define escapement goals, allocations, and measures to achieve objectives
8 5 AAC COPPER RIVER DISTRICT SALMON MANAGEMENT PLAN ENACTED IN 1984 WITH SEVERAL CHANGES SINCE MANAGE FOR A SEG OF 300, ,000 SOCKEYE SALMON DEFINES ESCAPEMENT CATEGORIES AND GOALS (ALLOCATIONS)
9 MILES LAKE SONAR GOAL Sockeye Spawning Escapement 300,000 to 500,000 Other Salmon 17,500 Glennallen Subdistrict Subsistence 60-75,000 Chitina Subdistrict Personal Use ,000 Sport Fishery 15,000 Hatchery Brood (Sockeye Salmon) Estimated Annually Hatchery Surplus (Sockeye Salmon) Estimated Annually Total Announced Annually
10 5 AAC Copper River Chinook Salmon Fishery Management Plan Chinook salmon commercial district run-timing May to June 1996 BOF adopted Copper River Chinook Salmon Fishery Management Plan with 5% reduction in harvest potential In 1999 and 2003 BOF amended plan adopting Chinook salmon spawning escapement goals
11 Fishery Assessment Tools Preseason Forecast Abundance Based Management Lower River Sonar Miles Lake Sonar Counts Aerial Survey Estimates Marked Otolith Data
12 Preseason Forecast Forecasts are based on brood-year sibling returns Copper River sockeye salmon runs are dominated by 4 and 5 year old returns No Chinook salmon forecasts
13 Abundance Based Management Actual harvest is compared to anticipated forecasted harvest Other factors include harvest location, harvest consistency, effort, and environmental conditions Used in conjunction with Lower River sonar information before reliable sonar trends become available
14 Lower River Test Fishery and Sonar LRTF / Sonar used to confirm inriver migration LRTF Initiated in 2000 / Sonar in 2001 Used in conjunction with abundance based management Long term goal - correlate CPUE to Miles Lake sonar counts Provides gauge of early escapement against fishing pressure
15
16 Miles Lake Sonar Located 53 km upriver from the commercial district fishing grounds Management tool since 1978 Operates from mid-may until end of July Daily escapement goals derived from historical run timing curves No species apportionment

21 Marked Otolith Data and Gulkana Hatchery The 5-year mean release from Gulkana Hatchery is 22.5 million sockeye salmon Release sites include Paxson, Crosswind, and Summit Lakes Enhanced sockeye salmon mixed with wild sockeye salmon preventing targeted harvest of enhanced stocks Marked otoliths enable inseason assessment of enhanced salmon contributions
22 Is It Worth the Pain? Sustainable escapement goal oriented management provides for long term yield and fishing opportunity Not everyone agrees with ANY management decision Inaction and complacency are not options
23 Copper River Ten Year Average Commercial Salmon Harvest ( ) Sockeye salmon 1.5 Million Chinook salmon 48,000 Coho salmon 300,000 Pink salmon 10,000 Chum salmon 18,000 Total 1.9 Million

26 It Is Worth the Pain The Copper River commercial fishery has existed uninterrupted since 1889 Current salmon runs are healthy Number of participants in the fisheries is increasing requiring precision management and assessment tools
