This grant is for the continued research, monitoring, and conservation of endangered native fish species, specifically the razorback sucker (RASU), bonytail (BONY), and flannelmouth sucker (FLSU), within the Lower Colorado River Multi-Species Conservation Program (LCR MSCP). The primary purpose is to support critical work tasks related to these species in Lake Mead and Lake Mohave. The recipient will be responsible for providing, operating, and maintaining dedicated fish rearing facilities at Lake Mead Hatchery (LMH) and Overton Wildlife Management Area (OWMA). Activities encompass the rearing of wild-caught larvae, the grow-out of post-larval and sub-adult fish, and the continued care of existing RASU and FLSU year classes from 2010, 2011, and 2012 currently housed at the station. This initiative is vital for the preservation and restoration of these vulnerable native fish populations.
