FISCAL YEAR 1995 

REPORT NO. 30 
The Division of Fish Hatcheries is pleased to send you the Fish and Fish Egg Distribution Report for 

Fiscal Year 1995. The report describes the mission of the National Fish Hatchery System, a component 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. In keeping with the National Performance Review, the Fiscal Year 1995 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. 

Additional copies of this report can be obtained from the Division of Fish Hatcheries at the address

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 Ad, 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: 72 National Fish Hatcheries, 

61 Fish and Wildlife Resource Management Offices, 

9 Fish Health Centers, and 5 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 1995, the Service began refocusing 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.

Goals of the Recreational Fisheries 

Stewardship Initiative 

, Formulate, adopt and implement 

actions that will improve the Nation's 

aquatic resources; 

, Provi.de accessibility and awareness of 

opp0rtunities for public participation 

and enjoyment of the Nation's aquatic 

r~ources; 

, Assist private landowners and managers to improve aquatic resources and 

recreational fisheries on private lands; 

, Encourage and establish partnerships 

between governments and the private 

sector to advance aquatic resource 

stewardship and enhance recreational 

fishing opportunities; and, 

, Achieve balance in the management 

and use of recreational fishery 

resources. 


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 Federal, 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 is preparing a Recreational Fishery 

Resources Conservation Plan setting 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 

5 
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.

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. 
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 pro-

Restoration 

Atlantic Salmon 

No concerted effort to restore Atlantic salmon was 

made until the mid-1960s, when the Anadromous 

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 six years, National Fish Hatcheries have 

provided over 36 million Atlantic salmon for stocking in New England waters. Major river systems targeted include the Penobscot, Connecticut, 

Merrimack, and Pawcatuck. 

In 1995, more than 7.5 million Atlantic salmon fry 

were stocked and over 12 million eggs were incubated in the Connecticut River basin. This is expected 

to yield higher adult returns in 5-7 years, 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 

9 
the sea lamprey, improve water quality, and regulate 

harvest. Over the past eleven years, National Fish 

Hatcheries have stocked over 87 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. In 1995 naturally produced juvenile lake 

trout were collected by research vessels from Lake 

Ontario. Wild yearlings represented 10 o/o of all 

yearling lake trout captured in U.S. waters of the 

lake. The level of reproductive success exceeded 

objectives and provides renewed optimism for successful rehabilitation of Lake Ontario. 

Pacific Salmon and Steelhead 

Trout 

Pacific salmon and steelhead trout restoration efforts 

consist of a combination of hatchery propagation, 

wild stock management, and habitat 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 Ad to restore anadromous fishery 

resources in the Sacramento River. The Coleman 

National Fish Hatchery has been a major contributor 

to these efforts. Restoration activities in the 

10 

Columbia River basin include management of three 

stocks of Snake River salmon listed under the 

Endangered Species Ad and efforts to prevent future 

listings of other stocks at risk. In 1995, National Fish 

Hatcheries produced over 8 million spring chinook 

salmon, over 42 million fall chinook salmon, over 4 

million coho salmon, over 4 million chum salmon, 

and over 6 million steelhead trout to supplement and 

mitigate natural production of the Columbia River 

Basin and western Washington river basin. 

Striped Bass 

Striped bass restoration efforts have largely focused 

on the Atlantic and Gulf coasts. Over 6 million 

striped bass were stocked in support of this critical 

restoration effort in 1995. 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 self-sustaining 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 and 

1995. 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 cause by Federal water development 

projects. 

12 

Within the National Fish Hatchery System, 33 hatcheries are considered mitigation hatcheries. In 

many cases, the cost to operate these facilities is 

funded by the agency responsible for the water project (i.e., U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Tennessee 

Valley Authority, National Marine Fisheries Service, 

Bureau of Reclamation, and Bonneville Power 

Administration). In FY 1995, National Fish 

Hatcheries involved in mitigation distributed over 98 

million fish. Some of these mitigation efforts 

include: 

, salmon production at Coleman National Fish 

Hatchery to mitigate fishery resource losses in 

the Sacramento River system due to dams constructed by the Bureau of Reclamation; 

, northern pike and walleye production at 

Garrison Dam National Fish Hatchery to mitigate fishery losses caused by the construction of 

six dams on the Missouri River; 

, production of over 29 million fall and spring 

chinook salmon at eight National Fish 

Hatcheries to mitigate the loss of fishery 

resources in the Columbia River due to the construction of the Bonneville and Grand Coulee 

Dams; 

, spring chinook and steelhead trout production 

at Dworshak and Hagerman National Fish 

Hatcheries for the Snake River Basin as part of 

the Lower Snake River Compensation Plan, 

authorized by Congress in the Water Resources 

Development Act of 1976; 

, rainbow trout production at Norfork National 

Fish Hatchery to mitigate fishery losses in the 

White River drainage of Arkansas and Missouri 

due to dams constructed by the Corps of 

Engineers; 

, trout production at Hotchkiss and Jones Hole 

National Fish Hatcheries to mitigate the impacts 

of the Colorado River Storage Project; and 

, Walleye production at Mammoth Springs 

National Fish Hatchery for stocking Tennessee 

Valley Authority Reservoirs. 
Norfork and G~eers Ferry National Fish Hatcheries .,. · ·. in Arkansas 

The construction of tiood control dams on the North Fork and Liti:le Red Rivers eliminated 

valuable warmwater sport fisheries. Th.e 84th Congress recognized the need to mitigate for 

these lost fisheries and appropriated funds in 1956 for the Norfork NFH. Congress provided 

additional funds in 1962 to ~nstruct, operate and maintain a fish]latchery on U.S. Army 

Corps of Engineer's land below Greers Ferry Dam to compensate for the fishery loss in the 

Little Red River. In FY 1995, the Norfork and Greers Ferry National Fish Hatcheries stocl<ed 

2.4 million rainbow trout, brown trout, brook trout, and cutthroat trout in support of this mitigation effort.

& 
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 five 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. 

Fish Technology Centers have provided leadership in 

technology development in fish culture by: 

, development and improvement of cultural 

techniques for striped bass and several threatened or endangered fish species (e.g., greenback 

cutthroat trout, Arctic grayling, and sturgeon 

species); 

, development of oxygen supplementation systems; 

15 
, development of improved diets and feeding systems for larval fishes and several hard-to-rear 

species, such as striped bass, walleye, and sturgeon species; 

, development of cryopreservation methodologies needed to preserve genetic material of 

imperiled native fishes; and 

, development of genetic management and 

broodstock plans for Gila trout, Apache trout, 

razorback sucker, bonytail, and the Colorado 

squawfish. 

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 

especially 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 long-term survival of stocked 

fish. 

16 

Tagging has increased to keep pace with the demands 

of a changing management environment that 

demands greater attention to management planning 

and program evaluation. Hatchery fish serve as 

indicators of the wild populations to help determine 

how and why the overall restoration program 

worked. 

The Service is placing greater emphasis on evaluating 

the contributions of hatchery stocks in conserving 

our Nation's fishery resources. Special attention is 

being focused on genetics management, conservation 

biology, and coordination with fishery management 

plans. In partnership with Fish Technology Centers 

and Fishery Resource Offices, National Fish 

Hatcheries continue to use the results of evaluations 

to review, and redirect, when needed, its focus. 

Imperiled Fish Species Recovery 

National Fish Hatcheries are increasing emphasis on 

recovery activities for imperiled fishes, which 

includes threatened, endangered, and candidate fish 

species. An increasing effort of the National Fish 

Hatchery System is being devoted to holding imperiled fish species in refugia, developing technology to 

support propagation, and propagating fish. 
FISData-F¥1995 

FY 95 Lake Trout Distribution 

From National Fish Hatcheries 

17 
Federally-listed endangered, threatened, and candidate fish species are being held at 35 Service facilities. 

Included are 29 National Fish Hatcheries, 4 Fish 

Technology Centers, and 2 Fish and Wildlife 

Management Assistance Offices. Twenty-six fish 

species Federally-listed as threatened or endangered 

and 15 species recognized as candidates are currently 

being propagated or held in refugia at these 35 facilities. 

Controlled propagation is an important strategy 

identified in most of the approved recovery plans for 

endangered fishes. Implementation of strategies 

identified in recovery plans is coordinated with other 

recovery priorities. 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: 

, providing diagnostic services and expertise for 

recovery programs for Lahontan cutthroat 

trout, Cui-ui suckers, Sacramento River winterrun chinook salmon, Puget Sound summer 

chum salmon, Columbia River chinook salmon, 

Columbia River sturgeon, and Redfish Lake 

sockeye salmon; 

18 
, conducting investigations in cryopreservation 

of gametes of winter-run chinook in the 

Sacramento River; 

, developing non-lethal sampling methods to 

provide an alternative methods for disease 

determinations that does not require sacrificing 

valuable or endangered fishes; and 

, developing non-lethal methods for fish health 

sampling and monitoring of threatened and 

endangered species. 

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 FD.Xs 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 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. 

19 
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 1995, broodstock program hatcheries produced over 51 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 oflake 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-to-obtain 

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 ofbroodstocks 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.

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.
