Salmon Treaty (PST).

Webinars will be held on April 11 and 24, 2018. These webinars will provide an
overview of the Discussion Document, an opportunity for questions and brief
discussion to help support participants feedback on the core question: Do you
think the current maximum allowable bilateral exploitation rate under the
Pacific Salmon Treaty Southern Coho Management Plan be maintained, reduced or
increased? A questionnaire is included in the Discussion Document and may be
returned directly to Department. Please send all completed questionnaires to
