  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Fish Management Plan Neskowin Creek 1979 Abstract -- Neskowin Creek is a small Pacific Ocean tributary containing 23 miles of production waters with no estuary. It produces resident and anadromous cutthroat trout, winter steelhead, and coho, fall chinook, and chum salmon. The stream was stocked with hatchery fish in the past but is being managed for wild fish now. It presently receives light angling pressure, but this will probably increase. There are no special angling restrictions. Maintenance of water quality, summertime streamflows, riparian vegetation, and prevention of stream channel alterations are key elements in protecting the capability of this stream to sustain natural production of all salmonids. In July 1979, the Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission accepted the Department's recommendation to manage Neskowin Creek for wild fish of all species.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Comprehensive Plan for Production and Management of Oregon's Anadromous Salmon and Trout: Coastal Chinook Salmon Plan Abstract -- This is the fourth in a series of individual species plans concerning management of anadromous salmonid populations in the state of Oregon. This plan focuses on the actions the agency will take regarding chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha populations produced in Oregon Coastal watersheds from the Necanicum River in the north to the Winchuck River at the Oregon-California border. Management of chinook salmon in the Columbia River basin is shaped by a cooperative agreement with the state of Washington, the Columbia River Treaty Indian Tribes, and the Federal Government. This management plan for wild and hatchery coastal chinook salmon in coastal river basins is the product of an ongoing planning process. The process began with the preparation of a report that contains descriptions of the life histories and assessments of recent trends in the run strengths of chinook salmon stocks in Oregon coastal river basins (Nicholas and Hankin 1988). ODFW staff and public representatives developed a comprehensive list of issues of concern and actions needed to improve management of coastal chinook salmon. These actions were based in part on a review of historic and contemporary habitat, harvest, and enhancement management practices in Oregon and on a review of the fisheries scientific literature.

The Steelhead Plan contains policies, goals, objectives, strategies and actions that guide the management of steelhead statewide. The plan recognizes the biological diversity among steelhead populations and the varying issues and challenges facing steelhead management throughout Oregon, and therefore allows basin plans to tailor management to fit specific circumstances.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: A Plan for Reintroduction of Anadromous Fish in the Upper Klamath Basin 2008 Abstract -- The Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission (OFWC) has adopted statewide species plans for Chinook and coho salmon, steelhead, trout, and warmwater gamefish. These plans guide the development of localized plans for species management units, and individual river basins. A fish management plan was adopted by the OFWC in 1997 for the Klamath River Basin. Basin fish management plans serve several functions. They present a logical, systematic approach to conserving our aquatic resources; establish management priorities, and direct attention to the most critical problems affecting our fisheries. In November 2002, the OFWC adopted the Native Fish Conservation Policy (NFCP) that calls for development of conservation plans for each species management unit to ensure conservation and recovery of native fishes in Oregon. Intent of the NFCP is to provide a basis for managing hatcheries, fisheries, habitat, predators, competitors, and pathogens in balance with sustainable production of naturally produced native fish. The policy has three areas of emphasis. The first is defensive, to ensure avoidance of serious depletion of native fish. The second is more proactive, to restore and maintain native fish at levels providing ecological and societal benefits. The third area of emphasis ensures that, consist with native fish conservation, opportunities for fisheries and other societal resource uses are not unnecessarily constrained. The NFCP acknowledges that basin fish management plans will provide fish management guidance until conservation plans can be completed.

  	Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Water temperature monitoring of the Klamath River mainstem: final report Author: Karuk Tribe of California Year: 1999, 2005 WATER TEMPERATURE MONITORING KLAMATH RIVER MAINSTEM ABSTRACT This report summarizes the water temperature data collected by the Karuk Tribe of California (Karuk Tribe) from July 1993 to September 1997 at thirteen locations along the Klamath River from Upper Klamath Lake to the mouth of the Klamath River at the Pacific Ocean. This report describes the water temperature monitoring system designed by the Karuk Tribe, the data checks that were performed, and a summary of the water temperature data results. The Karuk Tribe began this study in part in response to the Klamath River Basin Fisheries Task Force stated objective to monitor water temperature conditions above, within, and below existing water projects along the Klamath River. With help from the California Department of Fish and Game, PacifiCorp, and the Klamath National Forest, this project was expanded from six to thirteen original monitoring sites in 1993. Water temperature data were collected by Ryan TempMentor? instruments typically on an hourly time interval. The data was checked for accuracy by consultants and reduced for this report to mean daily water temperature values each year on a monthly basis in US Geological Survey tabular format. Mean value data were entered into a Microsoft Access relational database for use on an IBM compatible computer. Although the period of record for the Klamath River water temperature data stretches over 5 years, several gaps in data inhibit detailed analysis. The analysis presented, illustrates when the minimum and maximum preferred temperature ranges for salmonids are exceeded. In addition, preliminary temperature trend shows that in August water temperature values below Iron Gate Dam were lower than other monitoring stations further downstream. Conversely, water temperature values in October are warmer below Iron Gate than in the unregulated reaches of the Klamath River downstream. Given this information, it appears that releases from Iron Gate Dam do influence the natural water temperature balance in the Klamath River. To more accurately determine the extent of reservoir releases on the natural thermal environment, additional water temperature measurements need to be collected.
