Purpose of the meeting

The primary purpose of the meeting is to discuss and further develop interim management measures, or a management framework, intended to address the response of Klamath River fall Chinook to the dynamic nature of the Klamath River environment and the available habitat immediately following dam removal, and post dam removal until the natural environment is stabilized and the salmon population is more predictable.  Additional discussions may include, but are not limited to, the work of the Sacramento River Fall Chinook Workgroup, future meetings, workload planning, and upcoming Council agenda items etc. may also occur. The Workgroup will provide their recommendations to the Council at their March 5-11 meeting in Fresno, California.
