Contract Description:
The smolt-monitoring program (SMP) provides data on movement of salmonid smolts past the series of dams on the Snake and Columbia rivers. Indices of migration timing are provided for the run-at-large at key monitoring sites. In addition, marked smolts from hatcheries provide measures of smolt speed and in-river survival through key reaches. Fish quality, descaling, and gas bubble trauma measures are taken on samples of fish collected at the monitoring sites to provide an indicator of health of the run.

These data are used for in-season operational discussions relative to flow and spill management, particularly during periods when spill is being provided to improve smolt passage at dams.

Non-Salmonid GBT monitoring will continue in the summer at the Bonneville and McNary monitoring facilities.
