salmon, coho salmon, and chum
salmon, and for research of Puget Sound
Steelhead in the Hood Canal Basin of
Washington State. The RMPs are in the
form of hatchery and genetic
management plans (HGMPs) for
hatchery programs operated by Long
Live the Kings (LLTK), the Port Gamble
S’Klallam Tribe (PGST), the Skokomish
Tribe (ST), and Washington Department
of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW). In 2016
NMFS certified that the five HGMPs
satisfied limit 6 of the 4(d) rule. The
revised HGMPs will replace the versions
of the same plans now in place. NMFS
is notifying the public of the availability
and opportunity to comment on PEPDs
for the new programs. The hatchery
programs are intended to contribute to
fulfilling Federal tribal trust
responsibilities and treaty rights
guaranteed through treaties and
affirmed in U.S. v. Washington (1974).
The program operators submitted
revised HGMPs for the following
changes: (1) Improve the available
forage to southern resident killer
whales; and (2) investigate genetic
diversity of Puget Sound Steelhead and
the effects of release timing on marine
survival of fall Chinook salmon.
