The boat launches are not part of harvest management but another division. Also it was a young man who does not work for WDFW ( or did not ) that got the grant for the improvements back a bit not R 6 staff. Also it is rather simple to get the launch functioning short term, long term I doubt it survives.

Just guessing looking at numbers one could go August 1 jacks / release Chinook and adult Coho, August 15 add retain adult Coho release Chinook through Dec 15 and shut down. The Hoquiam, Wishkah, and Wynoochee need to be protected and limited impacts for failing to even get close to escapement for many years.

As to after Dec 15 the combination of fishing pressures have damn near destroyed the wild Late Coho and nobody should be fishing below Fuller Hill after Dec 15. Sure the QIN impacts have been a major reason with the phony Steelhead season in Dec but remember it was the state under old WDG that created this mess and WDFW in its wisdom made it even worse with hatchery changes.
