Notes | This is a draft review made by the National Marine Fisheries Service of the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife’s Hatchery and Genetic Management Plans (HGMPs) for Oregon fish hatcheries. Ten ODFW hatcheries are considered. The document gives four main alternatives for the future of the hatcheries: 1) Do not approve ODFW’s HGMPs, in which case ODFW might operate the hatcheries without Endangered Species Act authorization and be liable for Federal penalties; 2) approve the HGMPs; 3) terminate Oregon coast hatcheries; 4) reduce hatchery production on the Oregon coast. Approval of the HGMPs is the preferred action. |
