Newport News-Times: Salmon fishers get a season:
By Joel Gallob Of the News-Times
Salmon fishers on the Oregon and California coast between Cape Falcon (in northern Tillamook County) and Point Sur near Monterey will get a salmon season this year, even if it won't be much of one.

Representatives of the National Marine Fisheries Service (a branch of the Department of Commerce and the parent to which the Pacific Fishery Management Council makes its recommendations) on Thursday morning came to the PFMC regulators with what amounted to a compromise proposal for the season.
