Purpose: The Pacific Salmon Treaty (PST) implementation grant administered by the Alaska Department of Fish and Game (ADF&G) funds several programs including administrative, management, research, information technology services, and enhancement required to implement the PST in Southeast Alaska according to PST terms agreed to by the United States and Canada.

PST provisions are overseen and implemented by the Pacific Salmon Commission (PSC).

Numerous abundance-based PST agreements directly influence the harvest of salmon from Yakutat to Ketchikan in five gillnet, one purse seine, and three troll fisheries.

Compliance with PST requirements entails management and research programs which provide accurate and timely forecasting, catch, effort, escapement, stock identification, and run timing data.
