  • Appendix H. Lake Davis, CA, Rotenone Application
    Appendix H. Lake Davis, CA, Rotenone Application The information contained in this summary was provided by the California Department of Fish and Game (California Department of Fish and Game, 1999). In October 1997, the California Department of Fish and Game treated Lake Davis in Plumas County, California, with rotenone to eliminate introduced Northern pike (Esox lucius) that was considered a predatory fish, potentially threatening indigenous salmonids and other threatened and endangered fish species in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta (personal communication: Brian Finlayson, California Department of Fish and Game 2005). Located at an elevation of 5,775 ft above mean sea level, Lake Davis is a 4,026 acre (1,619 ha) impoundment of Big Grizzly Creek, a tributary to the Middle Fork Feather River. The reservoir has a maximum depth of 108 ft (33 m) and a mean depth of 20.5 ft (6.3 m) (Lee, 2001). The reservoir is classified as meso-eutrophic based on growing season inorganic nitrogen concentration (Lee, 2001). From October 15 - 16, 1997, the Lake Davis and its tributaries (Grizzly, Freeman and Cow Creeks) were treated with two formulations of rotenone, i.e., 64,000 lbs of powdered ProNoxfish (7.1% a.i.; EPA Registration No. 432-829) and 15,785 gallons of a synergized liquid formulation Nusyn-Noxfish (2.5% a.i.; EPA Registration No. 432-550) to maintain a desired treatment concentration. The liquid formulation used piperonyl butoxide as a synergist. Rotenone concentrations were measured within and surrounding the treatment area. The data suggest that initially rotenone was not equally distributed through the water column; this is consistent with the reservoir having an average depth of roughly 20 feet.

  • Who's Who in the Feather River Watershed
    Who’s Who in the Feather River Watershed This document was developed to help address questions about organizations and relationships within the Upper Feather River region related to water and watershed management. Please submit comments, corrections, or additions to [email protected]. Almanor Basin Watershed Advisory Committee (a.k.a. ABWAC) The Almanor Basin Watershed Advisory Committee was created by the Plumas County Board of Supervisors to address water quality, land use, and critical habitat issues in the Lake Almanor Basin. American Whitewater The goals of American Whitewater are to restore rivers dewatered by hydropower dams, eliminate water degradation, improve public land management and protect public access to rivers for responsible recreational use. In the Feather River region, American Whitewater is involved in the relicensing and license implementation of a number of FERC hydroelectric projects, as well as the development of river recreation facilities and opportunities, such as the Rock Creek Dam bench. Butte County About one-third of Butte County (over 500 square miles) encompasses part of the Upper Feather River watershed, including Lake Oroville and the town of Paradise. Butte County is a State Water Project contractor with access to water from Lake Oroville and the Feather River watershed. Butte County Fire Safe Council The Butte County Fire Safe Council is a non-profit, public benefit corporation formed in 1998 to reduce damage and devastation by providing safety in Butte County through wildfire hazard education and mitigation. CalTrout CalTrout was formed in 1970 as the nation''s first statewide conservation group supported by trout fishermen. CalTrout’s goal is to protect and restore trout and the beautiful places where they live.

Mackenzie will provide brief update on the Eagle Lake project and Putah Creek Salmon restoration research. A native Idahoan, Mackenzie graduated from the University of Idaho with a B.S. in Fisheries Science in 2017. In her time at U of I she conducted an undergraduate research thesis looking at the ecological effects of an altered photoperiod caused by a solar eclipse on juvenile salmon foraging behavior and aquatic invertebrate drift & emergence. She has been at UC Davis since 2018 working as a Junior Specialist in Nann Fangue’s Ecophysiology lab. There she worked on varying research topics in salmon, smelt and sturgeon management and conservation. Now, as a graduate student, her research will focus on the genetic structure of Eagle Lake Rainbow Trout in the Sierra Nevada’s, and the reconciliation ecology of salmon in Putah Creek (Winters, CA).

  • Chapter 3 Region Description
    Region Description CHAPTER 3.0 REGION DESCRIPTION 3.1 Introduction The Upper Feather River watershed encompasses 2.3 million acres in the northern Sierra Nevada, where that range intersects the Cascade Range to the north and the Diamond Mountains of the Great Basin and Range Province to the east. The watershed drains generally southwest to Lake Oroville, the largest reservoir of the California State Water Project (SWP). Water from Lake Oroville enters a comprehensive system of natural and constructed conveyances to provide irrigation and domestic water as well as to supply natural aquatic ecosystems in the Lower Feather River, Sacramento River, and the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta. Lake Oroville is the principal storage facility of the SWP, which delivers water to over two- thirds of California’s population and provides an average of 34.3 million acre-feet (AF)/year of agricultural water to the Central Valley. Lands to the east of the Upper Feather River watershed drain to Eagle and Honey Lakes that are closed drainage basins in the Basin and Range Province, while lands to the north, west, and south drain to the Sacramento River via the Pit River, Yuba River, Battle Creek, Thomas Creek, Big Chico Creek, and Butte Creek. Mount Lassen, the southernmost volcano in the Cascade Range, defines the northern boundary of the region. Sierra Valley, the largest valley in the Sierra Nevada, defines the southern boundary. At the intersection of the Great Basin, the Sierra Nevada Mountains, and the Cascade Range, the Region supports a diversity of habitats including an assemblage of meadows and alluvial valleys interconnected by river gorges and rimmed by granite and volcanic mountains.
