Brian Gorman Proposed Quotations

Between the time we proposed to list these animals as threatened and now, we've discovered the population is in a more delicate situation than we had assumed.

This doesn't meet the standard that says in the foreseeable future these fish will become endangered. We proposed a year and a half ago to list them as threatened. But we have been convinced, in large part because of the hatchery and harvest reforms that were undertaken very aggressively, that a listing is not warranted.
