This federal Project Grant award of $449,324 from the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Reclamation under the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (CFDA 15.517) program will fund a 4-year study by the Karuk Tribe of California to monitor juvenile salmonid survival and migration rates in the Klamath River basin. The project will use acoustic tags to track wild and hatchery-raised Chinook salmon in the Scott, Salmon, Trinity, and Klamath Rivers, and install an array of 32 acoustic receivers...
This $151,816 federal Formula Grant award from the U.S. Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service under the Sport Fish Restoration program (CFDA 15.605) will support the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) in monitoring and estimating the escapement of California Coastal (CC) Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) in the Eel and Van Duzen Rivers during the fall and winter of 2024-2025. The project will utilize Adaptive Resolution Imaging Sonar (ARIS) cameras to...
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, under the Fish and Aquatic Conservation - Aquatic Invasive Species (CFDA 15.608) federal grant program, awarded a $117,153.94 Project Grant to the Yurok Tribe for the "Assessment of Anadromous Salmonid Stocks in Blue Creek on the Lower Klamath River." This 1-year project, running from October 1, 2024 to September 30, 2025, involves conducting weekly and bi-weekly spawning ground surveys to collect data on live fish, redds, and carcasses in Blue...
The Bureau of Reclamation awarded a $261,870 Project Grant under the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act Program (CFDA 15.517) to the Yurok Tribe in California. The grant will fund a 4-year project to monitor juvenile salmon survival and migration patterns in the Klamath River basin. The project will use acoustic tags to track up to 400 wild and hatchery-raised Chinook salmon from the Scott, Salmon, and Trinity Rivers to the Klamath River estuary. An array of 32 acoustic receivers will be...
This $999,929 federal Project Grant award from the U.S. Department of the Interior's Bureau of Reclamation under the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act Program (CFDA 15.517) will support a comprehensive monitoring and assessment effort associated with the removal of the Klamath River dams in Oregon. The project aims to quantify the abundance and migration patterns of salmon and steelhead as access to over 400 miles of previously blocked habitat is restored. Key activities include operating a...
The University of California, Davis will analyze 281 otoliths collected from Battle Creek from 2001 to 2020 under a $119,628 cooperative agreement from the U.S. Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service Region 8. The analysis will determine habitat use and migratory patterns of Battle Creek spring-run Chinook salmon to leverage similar datasets from other Central Valley tributaries. This will synthesize how ESA-listed spring-run Chinook salmon populations in the Central Valley use...
This federal Project Grant award from the U.S. Department of the Interior Bureau of Reclamation under the Indian Tribal Water Resources Development, Management, and Protection program (CFDA 15.519) will fund a $1,075,123 project to monitor juvenile salmonid survival and migration patterns in the Klamath River Basin in California over four years from 2023 to 2026. The Hoopa Valley Tribe will use acoustic tags to track the movement of wild and hatchery-raised juvenile Chinook salmon from the...
This $299,124 federal Project Grant award from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service under the Fish and Aquatic Conservation - Aquatic Invasive Species program (CFDA 15.608) will support a monitoring project focused on the ecological restoration of the Klamath River in California. The primary objectives are to assess the reestablishment of salmon and steelhead populations as they return to their historical spawning grounds in the upper Klamath River basin following the removal of four dams. The...
This Project Grant award of $300,000 from the U.S. Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service under the Fish and Wildlife Coordination and Assistance program (CFDA 15.664) seeks to: 1) further define the strontium isoscape (geographic delineation of naturally occurring strontium isotopes) across the Klamath Basin, and 2) use this information to assess changes in life history diversity, production, and migratory pathways of fall-run Chinook salmon associated with dam removal, using...
The Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service Region 8 awarded a $333,278.00 Cooperative Agreement to the University of California Santa Cruz (UCSC) under the Central Valley Project Improvement Act (CFDA 15.648) program. The project will conduct genetic monitoring of returning adult and emigrating juvenile spring-run Chinook salmon in Clear and Battle Creeks in California's Central Valley. The key goals are to assess the colonization and population dynamics of this threatened salmon...

THIS PROJECT IS A COOPERATIVE EFFORT BETWEEN THE U. S. FOREST SERVICE, KLAMATH NATIONAL FOREST, SIX RIVER NATIONAL FOREST THE SALMON RIVER RESTORATION COUNCIL THE QUARTZ VALLEY INDIAN RESERVATION THE NORTHERN CALIFORNIA RESOURCE CENTER THE MID-KLAMATH WATERSHED COUNCIL AND THE SISKIYOU RESOURCE CONSERVATION DISTRICT. THE KARUK AND YUROK TRIBES AND THE CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF FISH AND GAME (CDFWS) WILL DIRECT THIS SURVEY, AND ARE ALSO CONTRIBUTORS TO THIS EFFORT. THE CDFWS HAS BEEN CHARGED WITH DETERMINING CHINOOK SPAWNER ESCAPEMENT IN THE KLAMATH RIVER UPSTREAM OF WEITCHPEC SINCE 1978. THE DATA GENERATED BY CDFWS HAS BEEN AND CONTINUES TO BE VALUABLE FOR THE DETERMINATION OF HARVEST LEVELS FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF KLAMATH RIVER FISH STOCKS. CDFWS USES A COMBINATION OF COUNTING WEIRS, SPAWNER CARCASS SURVEYS, REDD SURVEYS, AND HATCHERY RETURNS TO DEVELOP THESE IMPORTANT ESTIMATES. THIS ONE YEAR SURVEY WILL DETERMINE IN-RIVER RUN SIZE (ESCAPEMENT) OF CHINOOK SALMON WITHIN THE SHASTA, SCOTT, AND SALMON RIVER BASINS AND OTHER MAJOR TRIBUTARIES TO THE MIDDLE KLAMATH RIVER DURING THE 2024 SEASON (OCTOBER THROUGH DECEMBER, 2024). INFORMATION WILL BE COLLECTED ON RUN TIMING, SPAWNING DISTRIBUTION, LENGTH FREQUENCY, AND SEX RATIO FOR FALL CHINOOK SALMON. THE SURVEY PROVIDES FOR THE RECOVERY OF CODED WIRE TAG INFORMATION AND SCALES FOR AGE CLASS DETERMINATION. ADDITIONALLY, INFORMATION ON COHO SALMON AND STEELHEAD OBSERVED DURING THE COURSE OF THE SURVEY WILL BE DOCUMENTED.
