Most ice has gone out on the Yukon River in Eagle, and with it residents’ fear they might face a repeat of the devastating floods of 2009.

The $1.5 billion takes into account the harvesting, processing and retailing of Bristol Bay salmon, as well as the total economic effects of those activities -- all the way from the gill netter who hauls the fish into their boats, to the grocery clerk in Seattle who hands the fish over to a customer.

According to the report, all those impacts make the fishery so valuable. In 2010, for instance, the fishery produced $370 million in exports, accounting for nearly 6 percent of the total value of all U.S. seafood exports...
