Type of Datafish trap: emigrant and immigrant juvenile and adult westslope cutthroat trout
OriginatorMontana Department of Fish, Wildlife, Parks
DescriptionThe annual number of juvenile and adult westslope cutthroat trout caught at the Young Creek fish trap for the years 1970-2001. Trap efficiencies were not calculated until 1998. For details on methodology, see Hoffman et al. (2000) in the KRIS Kootenay bibliography.

TitleMITIGATION FOR THE CONSTRUCTION AND OPERATION OF LIBBY DAM, Annual Report 2000
AbstractExecutive Summary: "Mitigation for the Construction and Operation of Libby Dam" is part of the Northwest Power Planning Council's resident fish and wildlife program. The program was mandated by the Northwest Planning Act of 1980, and is responsible for mitigating for damages to fish and wildlife caused by hydroelectric development in the Columbia River Basin. The objective of Phase I of the project (1983 through 1987) was to maintain or enhance the Libby Reservoir fishery by quantifying seasonal water levels and developing ecologically sound operational guidelines. The objective of Phase II of the project (1988 through 1996) was to determine the biological effects of reservoir operations combined with biotic changes associated with an aging reservoir. The objectives of Phase III of the project (1996 through present) are to implement habitat enhancement measures to mitigate for dam effects, to provide data for implementation of operational strategies that benefit resident fish, monitor reservoir and river conditions, and monitor mitigation projects for effectiveness.
Other Citation DetailsMITIGATION FOR THE CONSTRUCTION AND OPERATION OF LIBBY DAM is contained in KRIS Kootenay bibliography as Hoffman et al. (2000). The data described in this metadata record is from Table 18 in the report.
