Contract Description:
The overall goal of the project described here is to determine the natural reproductive success and mean relative fitness of hatchery-origin (HOR) and natural-origin (NOR) steelhead in Abernathy Creek, WA, and to assess the overall demographic effects of hatchery fish supplementation in Abernathy Creek relative to two adjacent control streams, Germany and Mill Creeks. This work responds directly to the FCRPS, RPA Action No. 182 .  This work was first approved for funding by the Bonneville Power Administration in fiscal year (FY) 2004.

Objective 1 - Develop a "native" or "endemic" hatchery broodstock of steelhead by producing hatchery-origin (HOR) progeny of natural-origin (NOR) captively reared adults from Abernathy Creek.

Objective 2 - Estimate total annual smolt out migration of steelhead, coho salmon, and cutthroat trout in Abernathy, Germany, and Mill Creeks.

Objective 3 - Assess physiological status of HOR and NOR steelhead smolts out-migrating from Abernathy Creek.

Objective 4 - Monitor and evaluate potential residualism, behavioral displacement, and ecological interactions (competition, predation) between yearling HOR steelhead released from the AFTC and NOR salmonids in Abernathy Creek.

Objective 5 - Use selectively-neutral, DNA markers to determine the amount of genetic change associated with captive rearing of wild-caught NOR steelhead, spawning, and subsequent hatchery rearing of their progeny prior to release as yearlings.

Objective 6 - Monitor upstream migration and adult returns of steelhead, coho salmon, and cutthroat trout past the AFTC in Abernathy Creek.

Objective 7 - Trap and spawn returning HOR and NOR adult steelhead for broodstock to produce HOR progeny for release into Abernathy Creek as yearlings.

Objective 8 - Determine the relative, natural reproductive success of hatchery-origin (HOR) and natural-origin (NOR) steelhead in Abernathy Creek upstream of AFTC.

Objective 9 - Communicate work and results to BPA and the scientific community.
