The Division of Fish Hatcheries is pleased to send you 

the Fish and Fish Egg Distribution Report for Fiscal 

Year 1996. The report describes the mission of the n 

National Fish Hatchery System, a compone~t of the 

Fisheries Program of the Fish and Wildlife Service, and 

its varied accomplishments. 

This year's report appears in the new format initiated in 

1994 to present our accomplishments more completely, 

yet more simply. Featured in this year's report are 

summaries of the National Fish Hatchery System's 

contributions to six states. In keeping with the National 

Performance Review and the Government Performance 

and Results Act of 1993, the Fiscal Year 1996 report 

identifies the diverse ecological, social and economic 

benefits provided by the National Fish Hatchery System 

and illustrates our many cooperative ventures with 

States, Tribes, the private sector and the public. These 

partnerships are at the core of our wise stewardship of 

our Nation's fishery resources. 

In these times of increased scrutiny of public programs, 

the Fish and Fish Egg Distribution Report serves as a 

primary tool for documenting the many benefits 

provided by the National Fish Hatchery System and the 

many customers who enjoy those benefits. Foremost 

among them are the American people, on whose behalf 

the System continues its tradition of excellence in 

rebuilding critical fish stocks, developing and sharing 

fish culture technologies, ensuring the health of captive 

and wild fish, and providing environmental outreach and 

extension. Through these efforts the Fisheries Program 

continues to provide leadership in recovering threatened 

and endangered fishes, restoring and maintaining 

depleted interjurisdictional fishery resources, mitigating 

the adverse effects of water development projects, and 

ensuring an abundance of fish to meet human needs. 

We welcome your ideas and suggestions concerning ways 

of enhancing future reports. _

Federal 

Stewardship 

Federal stewardship of the 

Nation's fishery and aquatic 

resources has been a core 

responsibility of the Fish and 

Wildlife Service for over 120 years. 

The role of the Service's Fisheries 

Program has changed over the 

past 30 years as increasing 

demands have been placed on 

aquatic systems. In the last three 

decades, human influences have 

pushed the Nation's natural 

resources beyond the ability of fish 

and aquatic resources to sustain 

themselves. Significant 

improvements have been made in 

the management and restoration of 

aquatic resources, but despite 

these efforts, many, if not most, of 

the Nation's aquatic systems 

remain degraded. Contaminants, 

water quality degradation, and 

habitat destruction increasingly 

threaten fishery resources. 

Growing competition among user 

groups leads to conflicting 

demands on often diminishing 

resources with attendant problems 

in allocation and management. 

Continued impacts on wild stocks, 

resulting in some being listed as 

threatened or endangered under 

the Endangered Species Act, and 

others being identified as 

candidates for listing, have been 

especially troubling. Failure to 

take aggressive action will lead to 

further listings and significantly 

reduce the recreational and 

economic benefits that fishery 

resources provide.

The Service Fisheries Program 

focuses its extensive field presence 

and broad scientific management 

capabilities on the Nation's fishery 

resources. This field presence 

includes: 65 National Fish 

Hatcheries, 61 Fish and Wildlife 

Resource Management Offices, 9 

Fish Health Centers, and 6 Fish 

Technology Centers. 

In recent years, the Service has 

maximized the output of its work 

force by integrating the work of 

fish hatcheries and fisheries 

management. This integrated 

effort has resulted in cohesive, 

more efficient national programs 

for Great Lakes lake trout, 

Atlantic Coast striped bass, 

Atlantic salmon, and Pacific 

salmon. The Service continues to 

work with its stakeholders -

Federal agencies, State resource 

agencies, Tribal governments, and 

private organizations -to 

improve fishery conservation 

efforts. 

In FY 1996, the Service continued 

focusing its efforts in fulfilling 

Federal mandates for recovery, 

restoration, and interjurisdictional 

management of depleted fish 

stocks. National Fish Hatcheries, 

Fish and Wildlife Resource 

Management Offices, Fish 

Technology Centers, and Fish 

Health Centers focused their 

efforts to recover aquatic species 

listed as threatened, endangered 

or candidates under the 

Endangered Species Act; restore 

and maintain depleted anadromous 

or highly migratory fish stocks and 

aquatic habitats at productive or 

self-sustaining levels; and 

establish, protect, or restore 

resources for which Congress has 

assigned responsibilities to the 

Service through legislation (i.e., 

mitigation of Federal water 

development projects). The 

Service will continue work on 

Tribal and Federal lands where 

that work supports recovery, 

restoration, and interjurisdictional 

management of depleted fish 

stocks.

Recreational 

Fishing 

This Act shall be administered 

with due regard to the inherent 

right of every citizen and resident 

of the United States to engage in 

fishing for his own pleasure, 

enjoyment, and betterment, with 

the intent of maintaining and 

increasing the public 

opportunities for recreational use 

of fish and wildlife resources ... ". 

Great Graphics. 

Recreational fishing is a cherished 

American tradition and an 

important contributor to the social 

and economic well-being of the 

Nation. Ensuring opportunities 

for recreational fishing is a 

legislative responsibility of the 

Service. In the Fish and Wildlife 

Act of 1956, which established the 

U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, 

Congress declared that " ... the 

provisions of this Act are 

necessary to accomplish the 

objective of proper resource 

development, and that this Act 

shall be administered with due 

regard to the inherent right of 

every citizen and resident of the 

United States to engage in fishing 

for his own pleasure, enjoyment, 

and betterment, with the intent of 

maintaining and increasing the 

public opportunities for 

recreational use of fish and wildlife 

resources ... ". 

The Service's role in recreational 

fishing recently entered a new 

era of broader constituency 

involvement. In 1988, the Service 

brought together a national forum 

of Feperal, State, Tribal, and 

private stakeholders to develop 

the National Recreational 

Fisheries Policy. The Policy 

focuses on healthy habitats and 

wild, self-sustaining fisheries, 

while recognizing the need for 

hatchery fish in aquatic systems 

that have been designated for 

economic production. 

In June 1995, President Clinton 

signed Executive Order 12962, 

directing Federal agencies to 

strengthen efforts to improve the 

quality of streams, rivers, and 

lakes for increased recreational 

fishing opportunities. The Order 

acknowledges the key to this task 

is strong partnership among 

Federal, State, and Tribal 

governments, and the private 

sector and establishes the National 

Recreational Fisheries 

Coordination Council to address 

this task. The Council is made up 

of 6 Federal Departments and the 

Environmental Protection agency. 

The Service and the National 

Marine Fisheries Service co-chair 

the Council. 

The Council prepared a 

Recreational Fishery Resources 

Conservation Plan which sets 

forth a 5-year agenda for each 

member. The Council will ensure 

that Federal agencies consider the 

social and economic values of 

healthy aquatic resources that 

support recreational fisheries, 

recommend ways to reduce 

overlapping Federal programs, and 

increase information sharing. Also 

under the Order, the Service and 

NMFS have developed a joint 

policy to reduce conflicts between 

the administration on the 

Endangered Species Act and the 

needs of recreational uses. The 

Service and the NMFS also will 

increase collaboration with other 

agencies and organizations, and 

increase outreach efforts on the 

requirements of the Act to 

minimize conflicts between the Act 

and recreational fisheries.

What is the Role of the Service in Recreational Fisheries? 

• The Fisheries Program works with States, Tribes, and other 

partners to restore and maintain stocks and aquatic habitats of 

depleted anadromous, migratory, and interjurisdictional fishes to 

self-sustaining levels; and to recover sport fishes listed under the 

Endangered Species Act. 

• The Fisheries Program maintains, for Nationally significant 

fishery resources, specialized fishery expertise and/or capabilities 

that are beyond the scope of State and Tribal management 

authority and funding capability. 

• The Fisheries Program works with the Ecological Services 

Program to conserve and enhance recreational fisheries and their 

habitats that may be affected by Federally licensed, funded, 

permitted, or authorized activities. 

• The Fisheries Program provides fish to mitigate for negative 

impacts of Federal water development projects that cannot be 

avoided. 

• The Wildlife and Refuges Program manages fisheries on Service 

lands to provide recreational fishery opportunities to the public 

and provides a strong fishery law enforcement program. 

• The External Affairs Program administers the Federal Aid in the 

Sport Fish Restoration Program. 

• All of the Service programs provide some degree of education and 

outreach that focus on the social and economic benefits of 

recreational fishing and the need to maintain healthy aquatic 

habitats. 
Why is Recreational Fishing Important to the Nation? 

• Fishing has enormous social, cultural, and economic importance in 

American society, and is the second most popular form of outdoor 

recreation in the United States (with swimming being first). 

Particularly for children, fishing provides an opportunity to learn 

about the environment and develop a natural resource 

stewardship ethic. Nearly 50 million Americans 6 years and older 

fish. 

• The 1991 National Survey of Fishing, Hunting and Wildlife 

Associated Recreation estimated anglers spent $24 billion on 

tackle, equipment, food, lodging, and other goods and services 

related to fishing. These expenditures provided jobs for 1.3 million 

people and generated $2.1 billion in Federal income tax revenue. 
Restoration and

RESTORATION 

Atlantic Salmon No concerted effort 

to restore Atlantic salmon was 

made until the mid-1960s, when 

the Anad1·omous Fish 

Conservation Act was passed, 

providing for Federal cost-sharing 

with the States. Since then, the 

Service has undertaken a major 

effort to restore the Atlantic 

salmon to its native rivers in New 

England. Currently, the Atlantic 

salmon restoration program is a 

cooperative effort between the 

Service, the States (Maine, New 

Hampshire, Vermont, 

Massachusetts, Connecticut, and 

Rhode Island), and the National 

Marine Fisheries Service. 

The Atlantic salmon restoration 

program focuses on protecting and 

enhancing all life stages of Atlantic

salmon, including stocking 

hatchery fry rather than parr or 

smolts, restoration of spawning 

and rearing habitat, harvest 

reductions, and providing adequate 

upstream and downstream fish 

passage to ensure successful 

completion of their life cycle. 

Over the past seven years, 

National Fish Hatcheries have 

provided over 45 million Atlantic 

salmon for stocking in New 

England waters. Major river 

systems targeted include the 

Penobscot, Connecticut, 

Merrimack, and Pawcatuck. 

In 1996, more than 8.5 million 

Atlantic salmon fry were stocked 

into New England rivers. This is 

expected to yield higher adult 

returns, making progress towards 

the establishment of natural 

spawning populations.

Great Lakes Lake Trout The Great 

Lakes Fish and Wildlife 

Restoration Act of 1990 provides 

resources to address mutually 

developed goals for the Great 

Lakes. Under provisions of the 

Act, in partnership with National, 

State, Tribal, provincial, and 

conservation organizations, the 

Service is implementing 

restoration actions for the Great 

Lakes. 

In an effort to rebuild naturally 

reproducing lake trout in all of the 

Great Lakes, an aggressive 

stocking program has been 

combined with efforts to control 

the sea lamprey, improve water 

quality, and regulate harvest. Over 

the past twelve years, National 

Fish Hatcheries have stocked over 

98 million lake trout eggs, fry and 

juveniles into the Great Lakes. 

Many of these fish and eggs were 

stocked on offshore reefs where 

lake trout are known to spawn and 

survival has been the highest. 

Progress towards lake trout 

restoration resulting from stocking 

efforts has been made in each of 

the Great Lakes; particularly Lake 

Superior, Lake Huron and Lake 

Erie. For example, evidence of 

natural reproduction from lake 

trout stocked in 1985 on Six 

Fathom Bank of Lake Huron has 

recently been documented. Lake 

trout are also reproducing 

successfully in Lake Ontario for the 

first time since native lake trout 

disappeared more that 50 years 

ago. For the last 20 years, lake 

trout reared at the Allegheny 

National Fish Hatchery, 

Pennsylvania, have been stocked 

into Lake Ontario to building 

spawning stocks.

rehabilitation. The Service is 

working cooperatively with other 

Federal agencies, the western 

States, and the Tribes in 

developing and implementing a 

watershed approach to 

anadromous fish restoration. 

The Service continues to work 

cooperatively with the Bureau of 

Reclamation to carry out the 

Central Valley Improvement Act 

to restore anadromous fishery 

resources in the Sacramento River. 

The Coleman National Fish 

Hatchery has been a major 

contributor to these efforts.

Striped Bass Striped bass 

restoration efforts have largely 

focused on the Atlantic and Gulf 

coasts. The Service's cooperative 

evaluation and management 

program for the Atlantic striped 

bass continues to be an extremely 

successful program. In 1982, the 

Service began working with the 

Atlantic States Marine Fisheries 

Commission to implement the 

Striped Bass Fishery Management 

Plan after populations of Atlantic 

striped bass reached a record low. 

In 1985, a total moratorium was 

placed on harvesting striped bass 

in the Chesapeake Bay. A 

cooperative effort was initiated to 

limit harvest and enhance striped 

bass production along the rest of 

the East Coast. 

As part of the restoration effort, 

the States developed cooperative 

stocking programs with the 

Service that included assessing the 

use of hatchery-reared fish in 

restoring the Chesapeake Bay 

striped bass population to a selfsustaining level. All hatchery fish 

were tagged and monitored. In 

1993, historical juvenile striped 

bass indices showed a strong 

comeback from the low point in the 

early 1980s. These indices 

continued to show an improved 

fishery in 1994, 1995, and 1996. 

The striped bass fishery along the 

Atlantic coast has been reopened. 

This success is also being seen 

along the Gulf coast, where a 

stocking program initiated by the 

Service in the 1980s is showing 

significant results.

MITIGATION 

The Service implements several 

forms of mitigation associated with 

existing Federal water 

development projects by 

1) minimizing project impacts 

(i.e., constructing fish-passage 

facilities), 2) rectifying project 

impacts (i.e., restoring habitat), 

and 3) compensating for project 

impacts (i.e., enhancing fishery 

resources in reservoirs and 

tailwaters created by Federal 

water development projects). 

Statutory mandates require that 

the Service mitigate the impacts of 

Federal water development 

projects on fishery resources. 

Mitigation hatcheries, as part of 

the National Fish Hatchery 

System, compensate for the 

impacts caused by Federal water 

development projects. Within the

Hillebrand/USFWS 

To foster successful management 

of the Nation's fishery resources, 

the Service continues to focus on 

the scientific management of fish 

stocks and aquatic communities. 

The Service carries out its 

leadership responsibilities by 

developing new concepts and 

improved technologies in fish 

propagation (particularly captive 

propagation for threatened and 

endangered fish species and other 

aquatic species), fish health, 

broodstock management, drug and 

chemical usage, stock assessment, 

and aquaculture. 

Fish Technology Development The 

Service's six Fish Technology 

Centers provide direct technical 

support to the entire National Fish 

Hatchery System and help ensure 

efficient operation of the National 

Fish Hatcheries. Technology 

Centers also provide technical 

assistance and fish culture 

technology to State hatcheries, the 

commercial aquaculture industry, 

and to other organizations and 

individuals engaged in raising fish. 

This includes development, testing, 

and quality control of feeds and 

feeding systems; application of 

research results and new 

technologies to hatchery 

operations; improvement of water 

reconditioning methods to increase 

efficiency of hatchery operations; 

and evaluation of fish strain 

performance under specific 

management conditions. A Fish 

Technology Center Advisory Team 

ensures that Centers focus on the 

highest priority needs of the 

Service, especially those involving 

conservation of ecosystem 

integrity through maintenance of 

biological diversity.

Increased areas of emphasis that 

Fish Technology Centers will focus 

on providing continued leadership 

in fish culture include: 

• conserving the genetic integrity 

of fish stocks with emphasis on 

native fishes; 

• developing criteria and 

standards to ensure that 

multiple site hatchery 

production evaluations are 

comparable; 

• evaluating the interactions of 

cultured fish on wild stocks; 

• developing techniques and 

technologies to assist in the 

recovery of threatened and 

endangered fishes; and 

• providing assistance to National 

Fish Hatcheries in managing 

drugs and chemicals used as 

therapeutants and in reducing 

use of these compounds. 

Product Evaluation Biologists 

continue to utilize tagged hatchery 

fish to obtain important fishery 

management information, thus 

providing the basis for hatchery 

product evaluation programs. The 

Service works in partnership with 

commercial and sport fishermen, 

State agencies, and regional 

watershed authorities to retrieve 

management information from 

tagged fish on migration patterns, 

the contribution of hatchery fish to 

restoration efforts, and the longterm survival of stocked fish. 

Tagging has increased to keep pace 

with the demands of a changing 

management environment that 

demands greater attention to

Imperiled Fish Species Recovery 

National Fish Hatcheries are 

increasing emphasis on recovery 

activities for "imperiled" fishes, 

which includes both Federal and 

State protected species. The 

National Fish Hatchery System is 

involved in holding imperiled fish 

species in refugia, propagating fish 

for recovery programs, and 

developing technology to support 

these activities. 

National Fish Hatcheries are 

currently assisting in the recovery 

of over one quarter of the fish 

species listed as threatened or 

endangered in the U.S. Thirtythree National Fish Hatcheries are 

working with 28 listed species, in 

accordance with recovery plans 

developed under the Endangered 

Species Act and in partnership 

with States, Tribes, other Federal 

agencies, and the private sector. 

National Fish Hatcheries are also 

involved in the restoration of State 

protected species to prevent their 

further decline and to prevent 

further listings under the 

Endangered Species Act. For 

example, at Gavins Point NFH, 

culture techniques are being 

developed for hard-to-rear species 

such as paddlefish. Gavins Point 

NFH is also working with the 

endangered pallid sturgeon. 

Controlled propagation is an 

important restoration tool 

identified in many of the approved 

recovery plans for endangered 

fishes. Implementation of 

strategies identified in recovery 

plans is coordinated with other 

recovery priorities, such as habitat 

restoration. Additionally, the 

National Fish Hatchery System is 

evaluating the appropriateness of 

expanding its controlled 

propagation program to 

incorporate other aquatic species. 

For example, native freshwater 

mussels are being held at Genoa 

National Fish Hatchery in 

Wisconsin, as a two-year pilot 

project in a cooperative study with 

other Federal agencies, State 

resource agencies, and private 

organizations. 

Fish Health Nine Fish Health 

Centers work cooperatively with 

National Fish Hatcheries, Tribes, 

States, and other Federal agencies 

to detect, identify, document, and 

control fish pathogens and 

diseases. Essential diagnostic 

services and disease treatment 

recommendations assist resource 

managers in restoration, 

supplementation, and enhancement 

programs by reducing mortality 

and morbidity in hatchery and wild 

fish. Continual fish health 

monitoring is necessary to better 

understand disease processes and 

interactions between hatchery and 

wild stocks. Fish Health Centers 

are expanding their roles in efforts 

to recover endangered and 

threatened species. For example 

Fish Health Centers are:

Drug and Chemical Registration 

The Food and Drug 

Administration has increased its 

emphasis on compliance with 

regulations governing the use of 

non-approved drugs and chemicals 

in aquaculture. Since only four of 

the 50 compounds commonly used 

in Service fishery programs are 

FDA approved, this has posed a 

major problem for the Service. 

Therapeutant drug and chemical 

use is critical to many Service 

fishery programs, including 

programs for the recovery of 

endangered or threatened fish 

species. 

The approval process for a new 

animal drug is expensive and time 

consuming. The research required 

for approval of even one compound 

can cost several million dollars and 

take 5-7 years. Therefore, in 

response to the FDA's increased 

demand for compliance and the 

high cost of meeting FDA approval 

requirements for needed 

compounds, the Service initiated 

an effort in 1993 to identify 

compounds critical to Service 

fishery programs and to begin 

working with the FDA to gain 

approval for use of the critical 

compounds. Since that time, the 

Service has reduced the list of 50 

Therapeutant fish drug and chemical use, critical to many Service fishery programs, also benefits recreational 

fishing. ©Photodisc.

compounds to 12 critical 

compounds and uses. Partnerships 

to provide funding and perform 

needed research on critical 

compounds are continuing with the 

National Biological Service, the 

International Association of 

Fisheries Agencies, other affected 

government agencies, and private 

aquaculture organizations. 

National Broodstock Program The 

National Broodstock Program was 

established to ensure the 

availability of adequate numbers of 

disease-free, genetically distinct 

strains of trout eggs needed to 

meet the production needs of the 

National Fish Hatchery System. 

In 1996, broodstock program 

hatcheries produced over 59 

million trout eggs that were 

provided to Service hatcheries, 

State cooperators, other Federal 

agencies, research institutions, and 

universities. These eggs were 

used by the Service and State 

cooperators to support critical 

restoration efforts (i.e., stocking of 

lake trout in the Great Lakes), 

meet mitigation responsibilities as 

the result of Federal water 

development projects, and provide 

recreational fishing opportunities 

for the 50 million people who fish 

annually. 

Additionally, the Service has been 

assisting private aquaculture 

interests in securing difficult-toobtain freshwater finfish 

seedstocks necessary to establish 

broodstocks. This is done only if all 

efforts have been exhausted in 

obtaining the particular strain 

from the private sector. 

The Service has a responsibility 

within its leadership role to 

maintain desired strains of 

broodstocks to meet the 

restoration and mitigation needs of 

the different aquatic systems 

throughout the United States. 

Currently 22 different strains of 

trout including rainbow, brown, 

brook, lake, and cutthroat are 

available through the National 

Broodstock Program. The Service 

continues to receive requests from 

State cooperators for additional 

strains necessary to meet specific 

fishery management needs. Strain 

Management Plans are being 

developed for all broodstocks 

currently held on Service facilities. 

The plans will ensure that all 

Service broodstocks are properly 

managed using established 

guidelines for maintaining genetic 

integrity.

Outreach and 

Public 

Involvement 

The National Fish Hatchery 

System provides outreach 

programs to heighten 

environmental awareness and 

inform and involve the public in 

support of responsible fishery 

stewardship. Over three million 

citizens visit our National Fish 

Hatcheries annually. Many of our 

National Fish Hatcheries serve as 

outdoor laboratories for school 

groups, environmental 

organizations, and universities. In 

1994, many National Fish 

Hatcheries initiated cooperative 

programs with secondary schools 

with the goal to provide instruction 

in fish biology, aquaculture, fishing, 

and ecosystem stewardship. A 

curriculum developed includes 

laboratory analysis of fish 

specimens, principles of applied 

fisheries management, and 

opportunities for international 

students to learn hatchery 

production techniques. 

National Fishing Week, an annual 

activity designed for outreach 

purposes, is actively supported by 

all National Fish Hatcheries. 

Fishing clinics, display aquariums, 

demonstrations, and environmental 

education sessions are highlights of 

this event. These events not only 

expose children and adults to the 

joys of recreational fishing, but also 

illustrate the importance of a 

quality environment necessary to 

provide these opportunities. 

Over 3 million citizens visit our National Fish Hatcheries annually.
