The closure seeks to reduce the impact on quillfish rockfish and other groundfish.
The county wants to discourage development too close to streambeds, but lack of guidance “provides a real hardship for a person trying to figure out the right thing to do.”
“There’s no wrong door for receiving support from your local county government in handling wildlife issues in a non-lethal manner.”
Government agencies, nonprofits, tribes, and restoration groups all work to monitor and restore salmon in the Eel River.
High whale numbers and low quality meat have meant opening delays of more than a month.
