RMECAT-2005-002-00Proposal Version 1Existing ProjectPending BPA Response2005-002-00Lower Granite Dam Adult Trap OperationsCollection and sampling of adult salmonids at Lower Granite Dam is an integral part of many studies. Past operation of the adult trap has been conducted primarily by NOAA Fisheries staff, in cooperation with other agencies. The demands on use of the Lower Granite Dam adult trap have increased in recent years, and are expected to increase in future years. Current uses of the adult trap include fall Chinook broodstock collection, run-reconstruction sampling, sampling of PIT-tagged fish from transportation studies to determine life history type (reservoir or oceantype migrant) for PIT tagged fish with known passage histories (i.e, transported, bypassed as a subyearling, bypassed as a yearling, or never detected), radio telemetry studies (both tagging and tag removal at the adult trap), PIT tagging of wild adult steelhead and wild adult Chinook to assess the efficacy of using genetic stock identification (GSI) and PIT tags to estimate the population characteristics of naturally produced steelhead and Chinook salmon, and starting in 2010, collection of sockeye salmon broodstock. Operation of the Lower Granite Dam adult trap will provide significant biological benefits for the Snake River fall Chinook ESU and critical information for run reconstuctions for other stocks needed by US v Oregon parties for harvest management. The continued operation of the trap is a proposed action in the federal Action Agencies' 2008 Final Updated Proposed Action and an offsite artificial propagation measure in NOAA Fisheries 2008 Remand Biological Opinion on operation of the FCRPS.William Muir (Inactive)06/02/201007/08/2011William Muir (Inactive)National Oceanic and Atmospheric AdministrationProgrammaticNoneRME / AP Category ReviewRM&E Cat.

The trap also serves as an emergency collection site when environmental conditions are such that removal of adults is preferable to allowing them to continue migrating upriver; for example, the 2015 emergency trap-and-haul operation to collect sockeye broodstock. The continued operation of the trap is a proposed action in the federal Action Agencies' 2008 Final Updated Proposed Action and an offsite artificial propagation measure in NOAA Fisheries 2014 Remand Biological Opinion on operation of the FCRPS.Rasa Keanini (Inactive)$479,77011/14/201805/30/2019Rasa Keanini (Inactive)National Oceanic and Atmospheric AdministrationProgrammaticNone2019-2021 Mainstem/Program Support2019-2021 Mainstem/Program SupportBiOp
