Description
- Abstract: Because drafting the reservoir may adversely affect bull trout, the Corps funded this study to minimize impacts of construction on bull trout. To protect this population, we need to more fully understand the movement and habitat use of bull trout in the South Fork McKenzie watershed, and to develop an emergency action plan should environmental conditions become detrimental to the overall health of the population. Recommendations from this project will be made to the Environmental Coordination Committee in the event that actions to protect bull trout become necessary.
-
- Purpose: OBJECTIVE 1. Determine the number of bull trout using the project area and their migration timing into and out of the area.
OBJECTIVE 2. Determine habitat preferences of bull trout rearing in Cougar Reservoir during construction compared to those prior to construction.
OBJECTIVE 3. Determine the most effective means of preventing bull trout from migrating into Cougar Reservoir and capturing those already residing in the reservoir.
OBJECTIVE 4. Evaluate options for disposition of fish if they are to be removed from above Cougar Dam.
OBJECTIVE 5. Monitor passage and estimate mortality of bull trout passing through the diversion tunnel.
OBJECTIVE 6. Determine the effect of construction on bull trout and spring chinook salmon in the S.F. McKenzie River below Cougar Dam.
OBJECTIVE 7. Determine whether construction activities at the dam or water quality conditions impact bull trout in the residual pool upstream of Cougar Dam during June-October.
OBJECTIVE 8. Conduct post-project monitoring of fish response to water quality conditions and operations of the completed WTC facilities.
OBJECTIVE 9. Determine the mortality of juvenile chinook salmon passing through the reservoir outlet and penstocks.
