Kuskokwim Subsistence Salmon Panel
Overview

Mission

The Kuskokwim Subsistence Salmon Panel (panel) was established at the Board of Fisheries (board) October 2014 Work Session to seek public input on how to ensure an equitable distribution of subsistence salmon resources throughout the Kuskokwim River drainage and potential tools for equitable distribution in times of low abundance.

The panel anticipates a series of meetings leading up to the January 2016 AYK in-cycle meeting with several milestones for proposed solutions and board action in between. In order to maximize this learning opportunity, the panel is composed of participating regional organizations that will serve as the main body for development and discussion of options.
