Development of the Lower Snake River Compensation Plan: A Brief History Scott Marshall LSRCP Program Administrator U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service

Purpose of the LSRCP To provide the number of salmon and steelhead needed in the Snake River system to help maintain commercial and sport fisheries for anadromous species on a sustaining basis in the Columbia River and Ocean (NMFS & FWS 1972)

LSRCP Steelhead Goal Escapement prior to construction estimated to be 114,800. Loss based on 15% mortality of smolts at each dam for a total mortality of 48%. Estimated number lost adults in escapement = 55,100. This established adult return goal back to project area. Other than broodstock for hatcheries, no other use of returning fish identified.

Fishery Mitigation Impacts Assumed a 2:1 catch to escapement ratio. 2 x 55,100 = 110,200 lost harvest. 34 % of lost harvest to commercial fisheries, primarily in mainstem Columbia = 37, % of lost harvest to sport fisheries = 73, ,00 angler days of effort in the Project Area.

Hatchery Development Plan Desire to replace lost steelhead back to the watersheds where loss occurred.

Hatchery Production Assumptions

The Hatcheries & Satellite Facilities

Funding 1975: COE Report - Operations & maintenance funded through future appropriations. 1977: COE, FWS & NMFS sign agreement that FWS will administer the program. COE determined 100% of benefits are assigned to generating electric power. BPA, as marketer of power, must reimburse treasury for all costs, including construction. 2001: FWS & BPA agree to a direct funding agreement that sets stage for new partnership.

Decades of Dynamic Change Assumptions used to size program not realized & flow of benefits has shifted. Survival rate of smolts less than assumed. ESA listing of steelhead has resulted in curtailment of fisheries & higher percent of returning adults to & above project area. U.S. vs. OR Management Plan & ESA has diversified programs in response to conservation concerns for wild stocks.
