PIN: 611 040 476 # Possible declaration of Oregon ‘fishery disaster’ Oregon senators and repre- sentatives are urging the De- partment of Commerce to de- clare a fishery resource disas- ter. If the expedited declaration is made, federal aid would be- come immediately available. The request comes during a time when Pacific commercial salmon fisheries are expecting an 82 percent loss in value when compared to the five-year average. “The value of salmon to Oregon cannot be overstated,” the members wrote in a letter to Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo. “In addition to the economic activity generated by this indus- try, salmon are an important part of the cultural heritage of Pacific Northwest tribes and are a treasured natural resource across the state. “However, the challenging impacts of climate change, in- creased drought, changing ocean conditions, and critical habitat loss complicate the re- covery of salmon populations along the Pacific Coast. Federal support for this industry is criti- cal while local, state, and fed- eral partners continue work on long-term solutions.” In a re- lated item: With Chinook salmon num- bers dwindling along the Or- egon Coast, the southern resi- dent orcas that live in the Pa- cific Northwest face the risk of starvation. Oregon has listed the salmon as an endangered species, and now a state com- mission is petitioning to add the orcas to the same list.
