Description: The Nelson (Sapsuk) River weir is located about 20 km upstream of Nelson Lagoon, on the North Alaska Peninsula near Herendeen and Moller bays. The weir is constructed from floating PVC pickets attached to a railroad tie anchored to the river's substrate. The weir is about 40 m wide and the depth varies between 0.5 and 1.0 m. The site was operated using a counting tower to enumerate salmon between 1962 and 1988. In 1989 the tower was replaced with the floating weir. Nelson River supports a large sockeye run, a healthy run of Chinook salmon early in the season and coho salmon later. The harvest of Nelson River-bound salmon is very important to the community of Nelson Lagoon.

Biological Escapement Goal for Chinook: 2,400 - 4,400
