These captively-reared fish are critical to the recovery of this salmon population in the wild. Both Burley Creek hatchery and Manchester Research Station are required to treat effluent water supplies with Ozone depuration systems to remove possible viruses that could to local waters in Washington State under regulatory statutes Clean Water Act, 40 CFR §122.6 and Ozonation of discharge required under NPDES (National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System) General Permit for Federal Aquaculture Facilities and Aquaculture Facilities Located in Indian Country within the Boundaries of Washington State (NPDES Permit No. WAG130000) – Burley Creek Hatchery (WAG130047) and Manchester Research Station (WAG130048).
