Egan is pleased that President Richard Nixon responded favorably to his request to have the Bristol Bay region declared a disaster area in view of the failure of the Bristol Bay sockeye salmon fishery this year. But, he says, he will continue to work vigorously for federal cooperation to put a stop to the devastating high seas fishing by foreign fleets which has wrecked the Bristol Bay fishery. Egan blames Japanese high seas fishing of Bristol Bay salmon with nets as the primary cause of the fishery's collapse and, in turn, blames U.S. state department diplomatic policies for allowing continued high seas fishing by foreign fleets. Egan recently urged in a telegram to secretary of state Henry Kissinger that Kissinger himself intercede in the Bristol Bay problem. "The state of Alaska's long and frustrating efforts to enlist the support of federal action against this devastating high seas assault by the Japanese upon Alaskan salmon stocks sometimes leaves us with the feeling that we are alone and forgotten in a futile battle," Egan told Kissinger. "At the same time, I just cannot believe that our federal government would deliberately sacrifice the wellbeing of the people of a state of the union simply for ease of diplomacy with a foreign nation in dealing with other matters." Egan strongly urged that Kissinger lend his "highly acclaimed efforts of personal persuasion toward resolving the long standing problem of destructive high seas fishing with nets of Alaskan salmon." At the same time, Egan an- nounced that the state will use a $600,000 grant received from the U.S. commerce department to develop a management plan for Alaska's 34,000 miles of coastline. Egan said the goal was to "come up with a long range plan that balances resources development and environmental values in our coastal areas." The grant was awarded to the state through the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration under provisions of the federal Coastal Zone Management Act of 1972. It will be matched by $200,000 in state funds and will be managed by the Alaska department of environmental conservation. Egan said development of the coastal zone management plan will be a three-year effort and that it will include the gathering of environmental and resources information from government agencies, business, industry and the public. Development of the plan, he noted, "comes at a particularly crucial time, as resources development potential along the state's coast and on the continental shelf is increasing rapidly." He pledged a "vigorous effort" to exert the state's full authority over the land and water resources of the coastal zone. A prime concern, he said, was the meshing of federal activities in the coastal zone with requirements of state planning. "Once a state has an approved plan," Egan pointed out, "the act requires that all federal agencies must tailor their programs — to the fullest extent possible — to meet the state's requirements. This provision in the law has great significance for Alaska, as the federal government controls the vast majority of our coastal areas." Salmon Pack Contest open to all readers With a new salmon season well under way, it's time again for The Fisherman's Salmon Pack Contest, a popular annual feature for the past quarter of a century.

Prizes totalling $150 are divided into a first prize of $75, a second prize of $50 and a third prize of $25 for the three contestants whose estimates come closest to the unrevised total canned salmon pack figure for the season as announced by the federal Fisheries Service. Deadline is August 23 and all entries postmarked with that date will be considered valid.
