From the State of Alaska

The State of Alaska, via the Alaska Department of Fish and Game (ADF&G), is tasked with managing Alaska’s natural resources for the good of the public and all users. In Cook Inlet, several different ADF&G offices manage throughout the watershed.  Salmon management is divided into commercial, sport, and subsistence divisions of management.  ADF&G is also the primary research body for the State, producing much of Alaska’s salmon science currently used in Cook Inlet salmon management.

Because we wish to provide a wide breadth of information, we sometimes provide links and documents that may conflict or present only one perspective on an issue.  Because of that, we feel it is important to note that none of the content provided on our website necessarily represents the views or opinions of the Alaska Salmon Alliance, excepting, of course, those articles authored by us.
