Book Description
The Russian River sockeye salmon escapement assessment project, which began in 1962, is one of the oldest stock assessment projects in the state of Alaska. During 2023–2026, the Russian River weir will be operated annually from early June through the first 7 to 10 days of September. All species of fish seen passing the weir through the fish chute will be enumerated daily. Sampling of sockeye salmon for age, sex, and length data will be done each Friday, and the sample size each week will be based on the previous week’s fish passage. Sockeye and Chinook salmon spawning downstream of the Russian River weir to the confluence of the Russian River and the Kenai River will be assessed by a foot survey during the fourth week of August. Multiple foot surveys will also be conducted from mid-May to 10 June to assess spawning rainbow trout.

Book Description
"This operational plan provides the instruction and procedures to properly operate the Afognak Lake adult salmon escapement weir and successfully meet each project objective. The primary function of maintaining a weir at Afognak River is to enumerate sockeye salmon Oncorhynchus nerka returning to Afognak Lake for the Alaska Department of Fish and Game (ADF&G) management of the Afognak Bay commercial, subsistence, and sport fishery. All fish passing upstream or downstream through the weir are identified, enumerated, and reported to the ADF&G office in Kodiak daily. Enumeration at the weir serves a secondary purpose by providing run timing and escapement information for Kodiak Regional Aquaculture Association (KRAA), which uses Afognak Lake sockeye salmon as an early-run brood stock source for various enhancement projects on Kodiak Island. Project activities at Afognak River weir include installation, operation, and maintenance of the weir, salmonid enumeration, record daily physical weather observation, and the collection of age, sex, and length (ASL) samples and corresponding data."--Page 1

Book Description
This project will enumerate coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) and other fish passage at a floating resistance-board weir in the Jim Creek drainage during 2023–2027. The number of adult coho and sockeye salmon that pass through the weir from 20 July to 30 September will be counted and estimates of sex composition for adult coho salmon and age and sex composition of adult sockeye salmon will be made for both years.

Book Description
Dual-frequency Identification Sonar (DIDSON; Belcher et al. 2002) is used annually to estimate sockeye salmon Oncorhynchus nerka passage into the Kenai River of Upper Cook Inlet (UCI), Alaska (Figure 1). Adaptive Resolution Imaging Sonar (ARIS) is used to estimate sockeye salmon passage into the Kasilof River. Both multi-beam sonar systems are manufactured by Sound Metrics Corporation with ARIS being an upgraded replacement of the DIDSON. Sonar passage estimates of sockeye salmon are used for inseason management of UCI commercial fisheries, as well as personal use fisheries in the Kenai and Kasilof rivers, to achieve established escapement goals and inriver run goals. The current sustainable escapement goal (SEG) for sockeye salmon in the Kenai River is 750,000–1,300,000 fish. The inriver goal for sockeye salmon in the Kenai River is 1,000,000–1,200,000 fish if the forecasted return estimate is 2,300,000; 1,100,000–1,400,000 fish for a forecasted return of 2,300,000–4,600,000; and 1,200,000–1,600,000 fish for a forecasted return of 4,600,000 (Marston and Frothingham In prep). The Kasilof River optimal escapement goal (OEG) is 140,000–370,000 sockeye salmon, with a biological escapement goal (BEG) of 140,000–320,000. (McKinley et al. 2020). Fish wheels are used to capture migrating salmon for 1) species apportionment; 2) to estimate age, length, and sex composition of the sockeye salmon escapement; and, 3) to collect genetic samples as needed. Historical sonar passage and escapement data for the Kenai and Kasilof rivers (Table 1) is provided in yearly Regional Information and Fishery Data Series reports as exhibited by Glick and Marston (In prep). This plan outlines how sonar sampling and logistical operations will be conducted for each of these sonar enumeration sites.

Book Description
The purpose of this project is to determine Chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha harvest by sport anglers on the Situk River and the age components of that harvest. Additionally, sockeye salmon Oncorhynchus nerka harvest will be determined and various methods of angler use patterns for both species will be recorded. Creel sampling techniques will be used to collect catch, harvest, effort and biological information from the Situk River for this purpose. This information is used to manage for the Chinook salmon biological escapement goal for the Situk River as per the Situk-Ahrnklin and Lost River Chinook salmon Management Plan, along with achieving the Situk River sockeye salmon biological escapement goal. Inriver abundance for both Situk River Chinook and sockeye is obtained from another project with a fish weir, and escapement is calculated by subtracting the above-weir sport harvest estimate of this project from that weir count. Additionally, the Chinook salmon age component information of the harvest gathered here is required for yearly stock assessment models to predict the following years run and set preseason management regulations.

Book Description
The Alaska Department of Fish and Game, Division of Commercial Fisheries, monitors annual escapements of salmon Oncorhynchus sp. returning to the Coghill River. A resistance board weir is used to enumerate sockeye salmon Oncorhynchus nerka passing into Coghill Lake. Counts of sockeye salmon passing the weir are used for inseason management of commercial gillnet and purse seine fisheries in the Coghill, Eshamy, and Southwestern Districts. This report provides operational guidelines for the Coghill River Weir.

Book Description
The goal of this project is to census the sockeye salmon escapement into Buskin Lake during 2022. The age, sex, and length composition of the run (escapement and subsistence harvest combined) to Buskin Lake will also be estimated.
