The Mat-Su Borough Assembly just accepted $2.5 million from the Legislature, a major infusion of money intended to boost Cook Inlet salmon numbers.<\/p>\n

The breakdown, at least for now, is $1.6 million for research and $900,000 for culvert fixes.<\/p>\n

Seems like a win for a place where recreational fishing on world-class rivers in the Susitna system dropped by half over the last six years due to salmon declines and the closures that came with them.<\/p>\n

Borough officials say more data on Mat-Su salmon could prompt changes to Cook Inlet net fisheries thought to intercept Mat-Su fish on their way north.<\/p>\n

But a sudden skirmish over how to spend the money has briefly sent borough officials back to the drawing board.<\/p>\n
