The Transboundary Panel was created in 1999 and has responsibility for salmon originating in the Alsek, Stikine, and Taku river systems all of which rise in Canada and flow to the sea in SW Alaska.

It’s tasks include implementing abundance based management regimes for chinook, sockeye and coho salmon; improving coordinated management; continuing joint enhancement initiatives; and, the review of access to enhanced stocks and harvest sharing arrangements.

The Panel is supported by the Transboundary Technical Committee and that Committee’s Enhancement Subcommittee.
