Jamie Goen, executive director of the trade group Alaska Bering Sea Crabbers, has been appointed to replace the late Kenny Down on the North Pacific Fishery Management Council.
So says this Facebook post. We've yet to see any official announcement from federal officials.
Goen was one of Washington Gov. Jay Inslee's nominees for the seat, though not his top pick.

The fact that it has become an "us against them" management scheme points to the dysfunctional state of the system.
So weird to put out a misleading press statement on this. The crabbers have enjoyed representation on the council through Kenny Down — a hired consultant for ABSC — and Craig Cross (among others). Not the first (or the last) time that Jamie has been fast and loose with the facts to fit her narrative.

Or is it an attempt at checks and balances?
Here's the official announcement:
