Description    


Provided oversight and support for the Intensively monitored watersheds (IMW) program with four (4) western WA complexes / worksites for the calendar year of 2020.
This included. 1) Straits IMW complex included: contract with the Lower Elwha Klallam Tribe to assist them in conducting the spring smolt trapping and maintenance of the PIT tag antenna arrays in the three streams
contracted with the Northwest Fisheries Science Center (NWFSC) to conduct summer juvenile sampling and PIT tagging and the PIT tag data QA, storage and analyses and ecology operated the flow gauges and assisted with electro-fishing. The Skagit IMW complex included: contract with the Skagit River Systems Coop to sample the density of juvenile Chinook in the estuary via beach and tidal delta fish monitoring, contracted with the Northwest Fisheries Science Center to sample juvenile Chinook in Skagit Bay via townetting. 3) Hood Canal IMW included: electro fishing, assisted by Ecology. 4) Lower Columbia IMW included: flow gauges and electro-fishing, funded and assisted by Ecology.

Project Benefit    


Provided support the the four western Washington IMW complexes through contracting with project cooperators, conducting specific field work, and coordinating among the IMW complexes.
