Your article reprinted from <i>T</i><i>he </i><i>C</i><i>ounter </i>and
titled "On the Klamath River, agricultural interests are pitted
against the needs of tribes and endangered species" by Jessica
Fu contains a factual error. It states: "Every year, a coalition
of tribal representatives, fishermen, and community and environmental
advocates sets catch limits on salmon in the region in order to
maintain long-term viability."

</p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0in;line-height:100%;background:transparent none repeat scroll 0% 0%">While the groups
mentioned participate in the process, catch limits are recommended by
the Pacific Fisheries Management Council, a federal advisory
committee, and set by the US Department of Commerce. By court decree
and settled law, those tribes with treaty or reserve fishing rights
are allocated 50% of the allowable catch of each stock. Individual
tribes then allocate their share among members. State fish and
wildlife agencies allocate 50% of the allowable catch for each stock
to sport and commercial, ocean and in-river fisheries.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in;line-height:100%;background:transparent none repeat scroll 0% 0%">Otherwise, the
article is excellent. It rightly highlights the only solution to
recurring and deepening water conflicts by quoting Professor Turlock:
“There’s got to be some retreat in the Klamath Basin...I think
it’s pretty clear there’s not enough water to support the
existing level of agriculture.”</p>

</p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0in;line-height:100%;background:transparent none repeat scroll 0% 0%" align="left">We, the
people of the Klamath River Basin, don't need another back room deal
that takes years to negotiate and keeps too much water with white
irrigators. What we need is to reduce irrigation water demand in a
fair, equitable and smart manner. That means a basin-wide program
that purchases water rights from willing sellers and dedicates that
water to in-stream use. It is time for key senators and
representatives to step up and lead the way. Disaster assistance,
while it is appreciated, is not enough. Real leadership will deliver
real solutions.</p><p style="margin-bottom:0in;line-height:100%;background:transparent none repeat scroll 0% 0%" align="left"><br></p>
