The Upper Colorado River Endangered Fish Recovery Program offers this grant to estimate fish mortality specifically caused by passage through the Thayn Hydroelectric Project on the Green River, UT. This grant is for a critical component of the Recovery Program’s broader mission to recover endangered fish in the Upper Colorado River Basin, including the humpback chub, Colorado pikeminnow, bonytail, and razorback sucker. The Program, a unique partnership of diverse stakeholders, aims to achieve natural, self-sustaining populations of these species while enabling continued water development. Efforts include restoring habitat, managing stream flows, augmenting populations with hatchery-raised fish, and addressing nonnative species interactions, all contributing to the ultimate goal of delisting these vital aquatic species.

| Description: | The Upper Colorado River Endangered Fish Recovery Program (Recovery Program) is a unique partnership of local, state, and federal agencies, water and power interests, and environmental groups working to recover endangered fish in the Upper Colorado River Basin (humpback chub Gila cypha, Colorado pikeminnow Ptychocheilus lucius, bonytail Gila elegans, and razorback sucker Xyrauchen texanus) while water development proceeds in accordance with federal and state laws and interstate compacts. This major undertaking involves restoring and managing stream flows and habitat, boosting wild populations with hatchery-raised endangered fish, and reducing negative interactions with certain nonnative fish species. The goal of recovery is to achieve natural, self-sustaining populations of the endangered fish so they no longer require protection under the federal Endangered Species Act. |
