This study reports on coho salmon in the Salmon River three years after the closure of the hatchery. Favorable ocean conditions helped, but dangers such as high flow levels in winter remain. "In the absence of intensive hatchery pressure, we hypothesize that the stream and estuary habitats in Salmon River will have sufficient connectivity, capacity, and quality to recover and sustain a resilient population of wild coho salmon."
