Project 2007-524-00 - Integrated Non-Lethal Electric Barrier Sea Lion Abatement

General

Project Number:
2007-524-00
Title:
Integrated Non-Lethal Electric Barrier Sea Lion Abatement
Summary:
The scope of this contract is to develop and implement a demonstration project to assess the potential to deter upstream movement and predation by marine mammals on Columbia Basin fish resources. The objective is to deploy and evaluate a passive, integrated electric barrier and sonar array that selectively inhibits upstream marine mammal movements and predation, without injuring pinnipeds or affecting anadromous fish migrations. A combined split-beam, broadband sonar system will be integrated with a electric grid using protocols that detect, classify and track marine mammals, and activate an electrical field only when pinnipeds are present.
