John,
You may be right I really don't know the facts on the de-icer issues...but isn't the streams and rivers a good distance from the location of the de-icing station? Is the airport runway runoff directly into the streams?
As a whole I think most of the runs (RI and beyond) did not produce as well this year as in the past and measures are being discussed (among wardens anyway) to close some runs or take drastic measures in MA too.
IMO herring should *only* be taken on the way OUT not on the way in...It just seems to me that they go through great pains to establish run only to deplete the future source of the stocks by taking roe-laiden females on thier way to spawn....let them spawn and take them afterwards. Seems like common sence to me.
