[env-trinity] Trinity River spawning survey update December 14, 2010

[Charles_Chamberlain at fws.gov]

Hi all,
An update on our spawning survey is available at the link in the message
below.  Our Chinook Salmon redd survey season is just about over for 2010.
I'll send announcement of one more season's progress report next week.

Last week was a pretty turbid one for the downstream survey reaches.  Our
crews were only able to survey Reaches 1 through 5 (Lewiston Dam to Round
House).  184 new redds were mapped with the most (151) occurring in Reach 1
(Lewiston Dam to Old Bridge).  With more rain on the way, our ability to
survey this last week will likely be pretty limited again.  It's good to
see the rain however, and I hope it's putting some snow on the Alps!

Until next week....
Charlie
