  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Escapement and Productivity of Summer Steelhead and Spring Chinook Salmon in the John Day River; Annual Report 2017 Abstract -- The John Day River, located in northeastern Oregon, supports five wild populations of summer steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss) and three populations of wild spring chinook (Oncorhynchus tschawytscha) with no hatchery supplementation. However, these populations remain depressed relative to historic levels. In 1999, the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) listed the Middle Columbia River summer steelhead Distinct Population Segment (DPS), which includes the John Day River Major Population Group (MPG), as threatened under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). Although numerous habitat protection and rehabilitation projects have been implemented within the John Day River basin to improve steelhead and other salmonid freshwater production and survival, it has been difficult to estimate the effectiveness of these projects without a systematic program in place to collect information on the status, trends, and distribution of spawning activity, juvenile salmonids, and aquatic habitat conditions within the basin. Prior to the inception of this project, population and environmental monitoring of steelhead in the basin consisted of a combination of index spawning surveys and periodic monitoring of some status and trend indicators. While index spawning data is useful for drawing inference about long-term trends in adult steelhead abundance, they are limited for determining the status of steelhead escapement or distribution at the population or MPG scale because survey sites are not randomly selected and are likely biased towards streams with higher fish abundance. A broader approach to the monitoring and evaluation of status and trends in anadromous and resident salmonid populations and their habitats was needed to provide data to effectively support restoration efforts and guide alternative future management actions in the basin. The Independent Scientific Review Panel (ISRP) recommended that the region move away from index surveys and embrace probabilistic sampling for most population and habitat monitoring. To meet the ISRP recommendation, the structure and methods employed by the Oregon Plan for Salmon and Watersheds Monitoring Program were extended to the John Day basin. This approach incorporates the sampling strategy of the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Environmental Monitoring and Assessment Program (EMAP). This research effort employs a statistically based and spatially explicit sampling design to answer key monitoring questions, integrate on-going sampling efforts, and improve agency coordination. The current program seeks to integrate project objectives focused on summer steelhead spawning metrics, juvenile salmonid metrics, and aquatic habitat conditions.

Also summarized are the associated broodstock monitoring data collected at weirs in the Grande Ronde Basin that are operated by our co-managers, the Nez Perce Tribe (NPT; Lostine River) and Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation (CTUIR; Catherine Creek and Upper Grande Ronde River). The main objectives of this report are to document and evaluate spring-sumer Chinook Salmon culture performance for hatchery programs and achievement of management objectives in the Imnaha and Grande Ronde river basins (CTUIR and NPT have specific program goals for Chinook returns to Catherine Creek, the Upper Grande Ronde River, Lookingglass Creek, and the Lostine River that are discussed and evaluated in separate reports prepared by each co-management agency). Overall, these data are used to adaptively manage salmon culture practices in order to optimize egg-to-smolt survival rate, smolt quality, smolt-toadult survival rate, the recruits-per-spawner (R:S) ratio, and to monitor spawning in nature by hatchery-reared salmon.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Natural Resource Conflict Management 1982 Abstract -- This Handbook was used for a series of workshops on Natural Resource Conflict Management held jointly by the USDA, Forest Service and USDI9 Bureau of Land Management in 1982. It was written by Romcoe, Center for Environmental Problem Solving, Boulder, Colorado. It is intended for people who are new to the field of conflict management as well as for experienced practitioners. The field of natural resource conflict management is comparatively new, so the insight, procedures, techniques and theory have been gathered from many disciplines and areas where dispute resolution has been more highly developed. This includes international peacemaking experience, organizational development processes and skills, labor-management relations, community dispute settlement procedures and academic research in social psychology. Although the literature in the field is limited, the experience and practice of natural resource conflict management have been extensive. This workbook draws together some of the theory and techniques that have been successful in environmental conflicts and may be helpful to the person who handles natural resource disputes on a day-to-day basis.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Oregon's Coastal Chinook, A Summary Abstract -- Whether they are landed by anglers using rods and reels, or commercial fishermen using troll gear, chinook salmon are prize fish. These fish have been an important cultural and economic element of Oregon's coastal economy for more than 100 years. Although human activity has affected the species during the past century, chinook remain today a strong and extremely valuable component within the state economic system. In 1987, for example, commercial and recreational fisheries caught more than a half-million chinook. Most of those fish had their origin in coastal streams of Oregon and northern California. This report summarizes the findings of a study that offers a comprehensive view of Oregon's coastal chinook salmon populations based on the best information currently available. The study is titled "Chinook Salmon Populations in Oregon Coastal River Basins: Description of Life Histories and Assessment of Recent Trends in Run Strengths." The study does not deal with chinook stocks of the Columbia River Basin. A limited supply of document copies is available for public review at libraries and department offices around the state. Personal copies of the study are available for a fee.
