Roy Hyder, Oregon's longtime representative on the North Pacific Fishery Management Council, is retiring after the council's June 5-14 meeting in Juneau.
That's the word from Michelle Dennehy, spokeswoman for the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife.
The council, based in Anchorage, helps regulate federal fisheries off Alaska. It has 11 voting members from Alaska, Washington and Oregon, with Oregon holding only one seat.
"We don't have a replacement yet, but we're talking about it," Dennehy said.
Hyder occupies Oregon's council seat as an alternate for the state's fish and wildlife director.

Roy Hyder's view
Roy Hyder is Oregon's lone voting member on the North Pacific Fishery Management Council.
His view, judging from this e-mail exchange with Newport, Ore., crab boat owner Gary Painter, is that the council is out of kilter.
"There seems to be an attitude that fish and fishing activity in the North Pacific Region EEZ belong to Alaskans," Hyder wrote.
Deckboss obtained this correspondence from the city of Newport. It was among materials the Newport City Council considered in passing a resolution supporting greater Oregon representation on the council.
