| Fishers face uncertain future |
| The future of Cook Inlet salmon boils down to two basic questions. How many will there be, and who is going to get them?
|
| Habitat key to resource renewal salmon |
| In the 1980s, as the state gorged on oil money and the Kenai Peninsula population boomed, more and more people discovered the Kenai River and the Cook Inlet salmon fishery. At the time, people with foresight began worrying about the habitat's future.
|
| Rough waters lie ahead for Kenai River |
| For two decades, people have worked to preserve, study and rehabilitate the Kenai River to protect its salmon runs while the area's human population has soared.
