  1. OKANOGAN RIVER SPRING & SUMMER/FALLCHINOOK Hatchery & Genetics Management Plans

  2. What Are They? Comprehensive Production & Harvest Programs for Spring Chinook and Summer/Fall Chinook in the Okanogan Subbasin and in the Columbia River from Chief Joseph Dam Downstream to the Okanogan River

  3. WHY? • No Mitigation for Grand Coulee Dam – 60+ yrs • No Anadromous Fish Mitigation for Chief Joseph Dam, 4 COE Lower Columbia River Dams • Inadequate Mitigation for 5 PUD Dams • Inequity: 630 Fish Ave. Annual Colville Harvest • No Colville Spring Chinook Fisheries • Abrogation of Federal Trust Responsibilities

  4. Summer/Fall Chinook Programs • Integrated Recovery Program: Increase Abundance, Distribution, Diversity of Natural-Origin Summer/Fall Chinook • Disperse Hatchery Production of Summer Chinook to Increase Natural Production • Realign and Increase Hatchery Production of Summer Chinook • Initiate Local Okanogan Summer Chinook Broodstock • Initiate Propagation of Later-Arriving Chinook • Mark all Hatchery-Origin Chinook

  5. Summer/Fall Chinook Programs • Integrated Harvest Program: Enhance Tribal C&S and Recreational Harvest • Selective Harvest of Marked, Hatchery-Origin Fish • Harvest Natural-Origin Fish When Available • In Okanogan and Columbia Rivers

  6. Similkameen Pond Ellisforde Pond Tonasket Pond Bonaparte Pond Omak Pond

  7. Summer/Fall Chinook Program Size • Similkameen Pond – 376,000 existing yearling summer chinook • Bonaparte Pond - 200,000 existing yearling summer chinook • Tonasket Pond - 400,000 yearling summer chinook (per PUD HCP) • CJD Hatchery - 300,000 new yearling summer chinook 200,000 new sub-yearling summer chinook

  8. Summer/Fall Chinook Program Size • Omak Pond - 400,000 new yearling later- arriving chinook 300,000 new sub-yearling, later- arriving chinook • CJD Hatchery - 200,000 new yearling, later- arriving chinook 200,000 new sub-yearling, later-arriving chinook

  9. Bonaparte Pond

  10. Summer/Fall Chinook Production • Eastbank Hatchery • 576,000 existing summer Chinook • Chief Joseph Dam Hatchery • 500,000 new summer Chinook • 1.1 million new later-arriving Chinook • PUD Hatchery • 400,000 existing summer Chinook

  11. Spring Chinook – Two Phases • Phase I Use Carson Stock Spring Chinook Test Habitat Function Create & Test Tribal & Sport Fisheries • Phase II Use UCR Spring Chinook (Methow Stock) Experimental Population w/Fisheries Contribute to ESU Recovery & Delisting

  12. Spring Chinook Program • Integrated Recovery Program: Increase Abundance, Distribution, Diversity of Natural-Origin Spring Chinook • In Phase I & Phase II • Current Reintroduction in Omak Creek • Later Possible Reintroduction in Salmon Creek • Test Pen-Rearing in Lake Osoyoos • Carson Stock Transitioning to Methow Stock

  13. Spring Chinook Program - I • Isolated Harvest Program: Enhance Tribal C&S and Recreational Harvest • Marked, Hatchery-Origin Chinook • Test & Deploy Selective Capture Gear • Create In-Lieu Fishing Sites • Acclimate in Okanogan at Ellisforde • Later Releases Below Chief Joseph Dam • Initially Use Carson Stock • Harvest all Adult Fish (Goal)

  14. Spring Chinook Program - II • Integrated Harvest Program: Enhance Tribal C&S and Recreational Harvest • Use Methow Stock • Selective Harvest of Marked, Hatchery-Origin Fish • In Okanogan and Columbia Rivers • Reserve for Integrated Recovery Program

  15. Spring Chinook Program Size - I • Omak Creek – 50,000 existing yearling spring chinook • Salmon Creek - 50,000 new yearling spring chinook* • Ellisforde Pond - 400,000 yearling spring chinook* • Lake Osoyoos - 100,000 new yearling spring chinook* • CJD Hatchery - 300,000 new yearling spring chinook

  16. Ellisforde Pond

  17. Spring Chinook Production - I • Leavenworth Hatchery • Initial Egg Source for New Production • 50,000 Yearlings for Omak Creek • LWS/Willard Hatchery • Initially Hatch & Rear 500,000 Fingerlings • Chief Joseph Dam Hatchery • Takes on Full production: 900,000 Spring Chinook

  18. Chief Joseph Dam Hatchery • 48 cfs Variable Temperature Water Supply • 2 Adult Holding Ponds & Spawning Facilities • 640 Vertical Stack Incubation Trays • Fry Troughs • 115,000 Cubic Feet of Raceways – 4 programs • Fishway from Columbia River • 3 Effluent Aeration Ponds • Hydroelectric Power Generation • Buildings: Office/Visitors, Incubation, Fry, Shop/Feed Storage, 3 Residences
