“On remand, the scope of immediate injunctive relief is submitted to the discretion of the District Court. The District Court shall have discretion, upon an adequate showing of justification, to fashion the injunction so as to accommodate a resolution with respect to this year’s batch, and this year’s batch only, of six million sockeye salmon fry from Bear Creek that are currently in the CIAA’s Trail Lakes hatchery. See Nat’l Parks & Conservation Ass’n v. Babbitt, 241 F.3d 722, 740 (9th Cir.2001).”
