The project sponsor proposed two work objectives for this project -- to maintain secure storage facilities for cryopreserved gametes and to assist hatcheries with the use of cryopreserved gametes for broodstock management or population recovery. The ISRP concluded that the project met scientific criteria, albeit with technical qualifications that would need to be addressed before implementation, especially with regard to the second objective. The Council decided to recommend only the first objective for implementation. As the ISRP noted, the “most support is to keep the samples frozen in good shape in two local universities and now to also include the federal cryopreservation facility in Colorado.” The technical concerns raided by the ISRP about the proposal to use the gametes added to the Council’s inclination that implementing the second objective was too low a priority for Program funds at this time.1
