Abundance

Abundance >15,000 spawner capacity (NOAA 2004); 13,733 (EDT template estimate) Cedar River – recent average of 481 fish (AUC 1 estimates, 1988-2006) Meet co-manager escapement goal of 1,200 naturally spawning adults on Cedar (AUC live count index which corresponds to estimated 1,680 total adults). Tribal and sport harvest depends upon abundance above this goal. Meet WDFW target of 2,000-8,200 spawners (lower range is MSY 4 , upper range is equilibrium abundance.) Tribal treaty and sport harvest opportunity occurs on a consistent basis. Available habitat is fully utilized.
