Presentation
 This is a 20-minute presentation originally given at Southeast Conference on February 13, 2018. It is an overview of events of 2017 that led to widespread fisheries closures to pass more king salmon to spawning streams. It compares the restrictions in fisheries being taken today, to those that were put in place in 1985 under the Pacific Salmon Treaty.
