King salmon numbers remain low, and summer chum numbers are the lowest on record. During the Yukon River Drainage Fisheries Association (YDFRA) meeting on June 29, the Yukon River Inter-Tribal Fish Commission’s director, Stephanie Quinn-Davidson, announced plans to request a new disaster declaration this season.    One was submitted last year that was led up by YRDFA and Yukon Delta Fisheries Development Association. They took the lead on disaster requests last year. The fish commission, AVCP, TCC all signed on to it. We ll be doing it again this year, said Quinn-Davidson.
