Chinook restrictions

I know we've had our quota reduced in A9 and A10 closed all together but how many fish per day can we retain (fin clipped, of course). WDFW site doesn't really say:
"Anglers fishing Marine Area 10 (Seattle/Bremerton) will see the biggest change this season. The area will be closed to chinook retention as part of an effort to rebuild stocks returning to Lake Washington. However, Marine Area 10 will still be open for coho and pink salmon retention.
Neighboring Marine Area 9 (Admiralty Inlet) will be open the same dates as last year, with anglers allowed to retain hatchery chinook from July 16 through Aug. 15. However, the area could close sooner if the quota of 2,483 fish is met."
It doesn't say retain 1 hatchery chinook ... just says retain hatchery chinook. Well hopefully the regs will be out soon. I get depressed when I think about this carp.
