“It is unfortunate that the Ninth Circuit determined the short-term economic interests of a few should be prioritized over the continued existence of these species and the current and future generations of First Nations, Tribal Nations, and communities throughout the Pacific Northwest,” the group said. It warned of unfathomable economic, ecological and cultural costs of losing West Coast Chinook salmon and Southern Resident killer whales, a population of orcas that spend summer and fall in Washington State’s Puget Sound. In a statement Wednesday, Wild Fish Conservancy said it was “disheartened” by the ruling. The conservation group said it would help provide more food for starving whales and help struggling king salmon populations along the West Coast, since most of the salmon caught in southeast Alaska spawn in rivers to the south. The winter chinook season could also have been impacted by Jones’ decision. District Judge Richard Jones in Seattle ruled in favor of Wild Fish Conservancy and ordered the National Marine Fisheries Services to redo a biological opinion that’s required for the fishery to take place. “Thanks to the 9th Circuit, fishing season is on come July 1.” The ruling “recognized the absurdity of closing down a vital economic industry for an issue that is already being remedied by the federal government,” Alaska Attorney General Treg Taylor said in a statement. The opinion said the state and others who were part of the appeal established a sufficient likelihood that certain and substantial impacts of the lower court’s decision “outweigh the speculative environmental threats.” The ruling will allow the fishery to continue while the appeals court considers the lawsuit more broadly. The ruling by a three-judge 9th Circuit Court panel means the summer chinook, or king, salmon season will start as usual next week for an industry that supports some 1,500 fishery workers in southeast Alaska. appeals court on Wednesday halted a lower court ruling that would have shut down southeast Alaska’s chinook salmon troll fishery for the summer to protect endangered orca whales that eat the fish. The way it ought to be.ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) - A U.S. Over the years, we have been able to adapt to the wants and needs of our customers and can offer great-tasting products fit for many diets, but since the inception of our bread-making business, one thing is still for certain – Great Harvest bread is truly one-of-a-kind. We still believe in our elaborately long, traditional methods of bread making because it naturally develops an exquisite flavor and texture with time, instead of relying on the use of additives. So is Great Harvest. As generations have passed on, our world has turned to cheaper, easier, less time-consuming methods of preparing food and has removed the handmade, healthy element of baking and cooking. They were concerned about food tasting great and nourishing their family’s bodies. Baking from scratch was the norm for our parents, grandparents, great-grandparents, and so forth. And we still fresh mill our 100% whole grain flour every day. We still believe in using pure, simple ingredients. Great Harvest has been baking bread the way it ought to be from the beginning, and we still believe in our phenomenal bread-making process.
