Action: Closes the Sol Duc River from the Sol Duc Hatchery outfall creek upstream to the concrete pump station to all fishing.

Effective Date: 12:01 a.m, July 6, 2013 until further notice.

Species Affected: All species.

Location: Sol Duc River, from the Sol Duc Hatchery outfall creek upstream to the concrete pump station.

Reason for Action: Returns of spring/summer chinook salmon to the hatchery are well below egg take needs. Adult chinook are staging in the river near the hatchery and will likely enter the hatchery trap as stream flows change. This closure is needed to protect these chinook until broodstock needs are achieved.

Information Contact: Mike Gross, District 16 fish biologist, (360) 249-1210; Kirt Hughes, Region 6 Fish manager, (360) 249-1204.
