Project history
Biological results achieved
Annual reports and technical papers
Management implications
Specific measureable objectives
Testable hypothesis
Survival from egg to smolt stage does not vary over a range of environmental conditions and densities of spawners.
Underlying assumptions or critical constraints
Parr to smolt survival in rearing areas can be accurately estimated even though they move out of initial rearing areas to other downstream overwintering habitat.
Methods
Brief schedule of activities
Biological need
Critical uncertainties
Summary of expected outcome
Changes in survival rates as spawner to smolt ratios change and as habitat conditions change.
Dependencies/opportunities for cooperation
Risks
Monitoring activity
Tagging of juvenile fish which will be monitored through trapping, direct observation and enumeration at dams.
Section 3. Budget
Data shown are the total of expense and capital obligations by fiscal year.
