Current through August 30, 2024

(a) Salmon streams flowing across or adjacent to the road systems of Petersburg, Wrangell, and Sitka support only limited runs of salmon. Harvestable numbers of salmon in excess of the spawning escapement needs for those streams are normally of such a small magnitude that these numbers alone are not sufficient to support the consumptive demands of those communities. Therefore, permits allowing the use of nets shall not be issued for the streams along the road systems of those communities.

(b) Repealed 4/14/82.

At its February 23 - 27, 1993 meeting, the Board of Fisheries amended 5 AAC 01.747(a) under ch. 1, SSSLA 1992 (the 1992 subsistence law), which repealed and reenacted AS 16.05.258.

Authority:AS 16.05.251
