A resolution instructing the Secretary of Commerce to strengthen and define his position regarding the status of Pacific salmon stocks.

Summary

Expresses the sense of the Senate that the Secretary of Commerce should take appropriate steps to strengthen and define a U.S. position that will insure that: (1) anadromous fish stocks (especially Pacific salmon) are perpetuated at productive levels; (2) fishermen are treated equitably in the sacrifices necessary to achieve conservation goals; and (3) interception problems are so addressed as to make a minimum impact on user groups. Requires a semiannual report to Congress on progress in such areas.
