The Puyallup Tribe’s restoration goal is to rebuild depressed Chinook and steelhead stocks and remove them from ESA listing by limiting harvest, using acclimation ponds, and making substantial gains in habitat restoration.

As directed by the Puyallup Tribe of Indians the Puyallup Tribal Fisheries Department shall, “preserve, protect and enhance salmon in usual and accustomed areas, and the water resources that determine their viability.” It’s the department’s goal to fulfill its obligations by leading and participating in habitat restoration efforts, harvest management/policy, fish enhancement projects, and research and monitoring activities.
