A decision has been made on measures to address Alaska chum salmon bycatch, with reports indicating that a protection corridor has been established in the Bering Sea to allow fish passage. The move is seen as a way to protect subsistence fishing in Western Alaska, where salmon runs have been weak. However, it is unclear if a hard cap on bycatch was implemented, with some reports suggesting that limits have been set on the pollock fleet's chum bycatch, while others indicate that a hard cap was rejected.
