Fall Chinook 1 he upriver bright fall chinook run for 1990 is forecast to total 127.000, a decrease of 129,000 fish over last year's total run of 256,000, according to Columbia River Inter Tribal Fish Commission manage ment biologist Jean Edwards. The forecast run is the smallest since 1983 and isaboutequaltothe 1981-85 average return of 1 1 1.700. Bonneville Pool (Spring Creek Hatchery) fall chinook are forecast to return at 33,000 slightly larger than the 1989 run of 29.200. Lower Columbia River fall hatchery stocks are forecast at a 68.000 return a record low. 1989 returns were 128.000. Lower river coho arc forecast to be down also. "Speculation on why the runs are low include drought conditions svhen the young fish migrated to the ocean several years ago and possible poor ocean feeding condi tions in the years these fish were in the ocean." stated Tdwards.

Council okays purchase of FM license The Tribal Council of the Con federated Tribes of Warm Springs, on February 7, 1990, authorized the purchase of the construction license of KIDD 98.3 FM, a low watt radio frequency in Bend.

The purchase of KIDD will improve kusiv ionai nPn.t9inn in thP Bend area. With the purchase of KIDD, tribal officials are antici pating a strong turn around in the station' financial stability due to the strengthened signal. The next step for the Tribe will be to study KWSI formatting, arrange for tower lease, purchase or lease equipment and rent studio space in Bend. The KWSI sales office will move from its current location in Redmond to the Bend studio, as well.

While lower river tule fall chi nook fish don't contribute to Zone 6 tribal fishery, they are a signifi cant part of the total count which contributes to the Canada, Wash ington and Oregon ocean fishery and lower river gillnet fishery. Upriver bright fall chinook con tribute heavily to southeast Alas kan and Canadian ocean fisheries, and Columbia River Indian and non-Indian gillnet fisheries. Since Canada's and Alaska's ocean chinook quotas are fixed numbers, a drop in any fish run is expected to increase the ocean harvest rate of other remaining fish, such as those destined to spawn in the upper Columbia Riser.
