This grant facilitates cooperation among the US Fish & Wildlife Service, Lower Snake River Compensation Plan Office (LSRCP), and Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) to achieve LSRCP objectives in Washington. It supports the operation and maintenance of critical fish facilities: Lyons Ferry and Tucannon Fish Hatcheries, and Dayton, Curl Lake, and Cottonwood Creek Ponds. WDFW will manage these sites to rear sufficient fish populations, specifically aiming to return 18,300 fall Chinook, 1,152 spring Chinook, and 4,656 steelhead adults to the Snake River basin. Additionally, 90,000 pounds of catchable trout will be produced. This initiative compensates for fish losses attributed to the lower Snake River project, ensuring vital fish population recovery.
