Section 2. Past accomplishments
| Year | Accomplishment |
|---|---|
| 1984 | The general parr monitoring database was started in 1984 and continues today. It represents the most comprehensive salmon and steelhead database in Idaho and is the only long-term database for steelhead. |
| 1985 | Documented the relative success of instream structures versus off-channel habitat development to increase parr production. |
| 1988 | Increased chinook and steelhead parr production by over 135,000 fish following habitat improvements. |
| 1988 | Identified factors affecting survival of chinook and steelhead parr. |
| 1988 | Estimated chinook egg-to-parr survival in the headwaters of the Salmon River and Crooked River. |
| 1988 | Estimated chinook egg-to-parr survival of fish supplemented by different methods (e.g. adult outplants, fry releases, egg outplants). |
| 1988 | Estimated survival impacts due to irrigation diversions. |
| 1989 | Estimated seeding level for A-run and B-run steelhead in specific rearing areas. |
| 1992 | Identified differences in peak arrival time to Lower Granite dam between hatchery and wild chinook. |
| 1993 | Determined release strategies for hatchery chinook smolts and adults to increase survival and production. |
| 1994 | Documented adult chinook and steelhead escapement to three pristine wilderness streams during 1994-1996. |
| 1997 | Identified decreased survival associated with multiple collection and bypass. |
| 1997 | Verified PATH chinook salmon smolt-to-adult recovery goals with Snake River basin smolts/female estimates. |
| 1998 | Completed model for estimating smolt-to-adult return rate by migration route. |
