Abstract
NMFS announces that the recreational selective fishery for marked hatchery coho in the area from Cape Falcon to Humbug Mountain, Oregon, was closed on July 25, 2000, at 2359 hours local time (l.t.). The recreational fishery for all-salmon-except-coho reopened on July 26, 2000. The Northwest Regional Administrator, NMFS (Regional Administrator), determined that the recreational quota of 20,000 coho salmon had been reached. These actions are necessary to conform to the 2000 management measures and are intended to ensure conservation of coho salmon.
