  1. Spring 2006 Gas Bubble Trauma Observed in Fish – Preliminary Analysis Margaret J. Filardo

  2. Fish were sampled at Lower Granite, Little Goose, Lower Monumental, McNary, Bonneville and Rock Island Dams. • Over 9000 fish were examined for GBT during the spring migration season. • COE Waiver Conditions for GBT are 15% of fish showing signs of GBT in non-paired fins.

  3. Summary • At tailrace TDG levels near 120% the incidence of GBT in migrating salmonids was minimal. • Project operations limitations at Lower Granite Dam resulted in higher TDG levels that showed effects of GBT in fish over long periods of time. • Operations for management of excess market spill resulted in elevated levels of GBT in migrating salmonids.
