This grant from CESU is for developing a longfin smelt experimental system and associated live feed rearing systems at the University of California Davis for research requiring multiple stressors, such as pathogens and contaminants. The grant aims to enhance experimental capacity and support research that cannot be conducted near existing rearing facilities. Funding sources include the Fish and Wildlife Act of 1956, Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act, Fish and Wildlife Improvement Act of 1978, Land and Water Conservation Fund Act of 1965, and Endangered Species Act of 1973. Closing date for applications is November 1, 2017.

| Description: | Development of Experimental System for Longfin Smelt and Associated Live Feed Rearing Systems CESU / Live Feed rearing system will be developed for Longfin smelt./ A longfin smelt (Spirinchus thaleichthys) experimental system and associated live feed rearing systems will be developed at the University of California Davis (UCD) Center for Aquatic Biology and Aquaculture (CABA) to allow for additional experimental capacity and/or facilitate research that cannot be performed at the Fish Culture and Conservation Laboratory (FCCL): experimentation that involves multiple stressors; e.g., pathogens and contaminants, cannot be done in the proximity of a rearing facility, due to potential risks to cultured populations. Funding authority: Fish and Wildlife Act of 1956, as amended, 16 U.S.C. (742f (a)(4); Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act, as amended, 16 U.S.C. 661; Fish and Wildlife Improvement Act of 1978, as amended (16 U.S.C. 753); Land and Water Conservation Fund Act of 1965, as amended (16 U.S.C. 4601-4 through 11); Endangered Species Act of 1973 (16 U.S.C. 1531-1543). |
