ADF&G Salmon Forecasts for 2013
By Ernie Weiss, AEB Natural Resources Director
According to the Alaska Department of Fish & Game (ADF&G), the 2013 estimated forecast for the South Alaska Peninsula pink salmon total run is 7.3 million fish, and the harvest is expected to be 5.7 million. ADF&G considers that to be an average harvest. A harvest of less than 5 million pink salmon for the region is considered weak or poor, and 5 to 7.2 million is considered average. More than 7.2 million is a strong run, and a harvest of greater than 9.3 million pinks is described as excellent.

SAND POINT SPIT BEACH PSP LEVELS
Download PDF Flyer.
The Sand Point Sample has PSP Toxin levels of 51 micrograms and is under the FDA limit of 80 micrograms. These are Consumable PSP levels.
The Recreational Shellfish Pilot Program is funded through the State of Alaska. The State of Alaska funds at least five communities from Alaska, in which they help monitor occurrence and distribution of PSP toxins that will increase communities’ capacities in devising a mechanism to better respond to the threat and minimize the risk of poisoning. The samples are analyzed by the Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation using approved analytical methods. The State of Alaska is producing funding for the Sand Point Spit Beach PSP testing until the summer of 2015.
