Wrangell’s Trident plant will stay closed for the third year in a row. In 2020, Wrangell highlighted the shutdown as a part of an economic disaster declaration, stating the closure had contributed to a 27% drop in seafood processing jobs in the community.
Wrangell’s Trident Seafoods plant will stay closed for the third year in a row. The plant hasn’t opened since 2019, citing poor chum salmon runs in Southeast Alaska.
In 2020, Wrangell highlighted the shutdown of Trident’s plant as a part of an economic disaster declaration,Wrangell officials say Trident has expressed a desire to reopen the plant at some point in the future, possibly as soon as next year, but Trident has not responded to emails and calls from KSTK asking for comment.
That leaves one fish processor operating on Wrangell Island — Sea Level, owned by Oregon-based Pacific Seafood. Sea Level’s season runs from mid-March through the end of October. The plant processes halibut, black cod, and rockfish in the early season, when it then transitions mostly to crab and salmon.
A report from the Alaska Department of Fish & Game released earlier this spring showed last year’s chum salmon harvest in Southeast Alaska was around 7.4 million fish, mostly attributable to hatchery production.
