Greetings from the Monitoring and Analysis Division in Seattle, Wash.! This Division prepares approximately 375 fishery observers each year for deployment aboard commercial fishing vessels in Alaska - and safety is always the top priority. 2006 participants are shown here being trained in cold water survival skills in Lake Washington.
