"Feds back plan to save Sound's salmon"

TheNewsTribune.com | Tacoma, WA:
"The Bush administration has tentatively endorsed a 10-year, $1.2 billion plan developed by a coalition of local groups to rebuild dwindling chinook salmon runs along Puget Sound.
After a six-month internal review, the National Marine Fisheries Service is seeking public comment on the recovery plan that covers 14 watersheds along the Sound, including the Nisqually and Puyallup rivers."
