Description

Abstract: This report summarizes spring Chinook salmon monitoring data for the Lower Snake River Compensation Plan (LSRCP) facilities in 2000. The main objective of this report is to document and evaluate salmon culture performance and achievement of management objectives for spring Chinook salmon hatchery programs in the Imnaha and Grande Ronde river basins. These data are used to design culture practices to optimize egg-to-smolt survival rate, smolt quality and smolt-to-adult survival rate. This report provides information on rearing and release operations for the 1998 and 1999 cohorts of juvenile Chinook salmon, the collection, spawning and adult characteristics for the 2000 return of adult Chinook salmon, and the collection of eggs for the 2000 cohort. Lower Snake River Compensation Plan (LSRCP) ODFW- Eastern Oregon Fish Research (EOFR)

Purpose: Program Objectives 1. Document spring Chinook salmon rearing and release activities at all LSRCP facilities. 2. Determine optimum rearing and release strategies that will produce maximum survival to adulthood for hatchery-produced spring Chinook salmon smolts. 3. Document Chinook salmon adult returns by stock to each LSRCP broodstock collection facility. 4. Determine if the total production of spring Chinook salmon adults meet mitigation goals and index annual smolt survival and adult returns to Lower Granite Dam for production groups. 5. Coordinate spring Chinook salmon broodstock marking programs for Lookingglass Fish Hatchery. 6. Participate in planning activities associated with anadromous salmon production and management in the Grande Ronde and Imnaha river basins and participate in ESA permitting, consultation and rearing activities. 7. Conduct index, extensive and supplemental spring Chinook salmon spawning ground surveys in selected streams in northeast Oregon. 8. Identify hatchery and wild origin for carcasses collected on spawning ground surveys in the Grande Ronde Basin.
