Snake River Sockeye Salmon
• Longest migration (about 900 miles)
• Highest elevation (about 6,500 ft.)
• Most southerly population
![Page 6: Springfield Sockeye Hatchery Program Jeff Heindel – IDFG LSRCP Production Meeting – Boise, ID.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649c8c5503460f94946975/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Snake River Sockeye Salmon
• Pre-western civilization - - up to 30,000 sockeye salmon returned to the Sawtooth Basin
• 1910 to 1934 Sunbeam Dam era – access to nursery lakes questionable
• Between 1953 and 1964, Redfish Lake sockeye returns monitored – high return 4,300
![Page 7: Springfield Sockeye Hatchery Program Jeff Heindel – IDFG LSRCP Production Meeting – Boise, ID.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649c8c5503460f94946975/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Protection under the ESA
• In 1990, the Shoshone-Bannock Tribes of Idaho petitioned the NMFS to list Snake River Sockeye Salmon
• Prior to listing, (in May,1991) the IDFG collected Redfish Lake out-migrating smolts and the four anadromous adults that returned in August, 1991 to initiate the conservation program
![Page 8: Springfield Sockeye Hatchery Program Jeff Heindel – IDFG LSRCP Production Meeting – Boise, ID.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649c8c5503460f94946975/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Protection under the ESA
• In November, 1991, NMFS concluded that Snake River Sockeye Salmon met the criteria for an ESU (Evolutionarily Significant Unit) and the population was listed as endangered

Captive Broodstock Development
Founding contributors to the broodstock - -
• 16 wild sockeye (all that returned in ‘90s)• several hundred out-migrating sockeye
smolts• 26 “residual” sockeye salmon

• After nearly 20 years of implementation, the program has successfully met its primary conservation objectives by:
• Applying state-of-the art fish husbandry techniques
• Maximizing effective population size and population genetic diversity
• Maximizing the numbers of breeders per generation
• Managing genetic risks (inbreeding, domestication selection)
• Comprehensive m&e and adaptive management

• Springfield Hatchery will contribute significantly by:• Establishing a self-sustaining
anadromous broodstock which will reduce the reliance on the captive broodstock
• Increase population fitness and reduce the risks associated with domestication selection
• Provide adults to out-plant to lakes to increase natural spawning and juvenile production

• Phased approach• Phase I: Captive broodstock phase
(already in progress)
• Phase II: Re-colonization phase – large smolt production facility dedicated to culture of SR sockeye = SPRINGFIELD
• Phase III: Local Adaptation phase

• Phase II: Re-colonization phase• Initiate with development of expanded
smolt program at Springfield Hatchery• Generate anadromous adult returns
sufficient to meet broodstock and escapement objectives to lakes
• Maintain RFL (Eagle Hatchery) program• Phase out NOAA safety net entirely

• Why not circulars?
• Linears work for us!• Species sensitivity• Footprint• Cost (dual-drain, overhead structure)• Reality = we (industry) are not ready for
this yet with Pacific salmon; not interested in leading the charge with endangered stock
