The Pacific coastal salmon recovery account.

That sentence, in plain words

This gives $65,000,000 to help salmon come back. The money can be used until September 30, 2027.

What this is about

Six states and many tribes can get these grants. A state must add money of its own. It must add at least a third of what it gets.

How to Read This Page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, checked against the page number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
