private institutions which provides a forum for non-governmental
organizations and state and federal agencies to cooperatively identify and
address salmon research and restoration needs. The Arctic-Yukon-Kuskokwim

includes the watersheds of the Norton Sound region up to and including the
village of Shishmaref, the Yukon River watershed within Alaska, and the
Kuskokwim River watershed (including the coastal watersheds north of Cape
Newenham), plus the Bering Sea marine ecosystem.
