  • Snake River Sockeye Salmon Recovery Plan Summary
    Snake River Sockeye Salmon Recovery Plan Summary Introduction This recovery plan (Plan) serves as a blueprint for the protection and restoration of Snake River Sockeye Salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka). Snake River Sockeye Salmon were listed as an endangered species under the Endangered Species Act (ESA) in 1991. The listing was reaffirmed in 2005. The species remains at risk of extinction. Today, the last remaining Snake River Sockeye Salmon spawn in Sawtooth Valley lakes, high in the Salmon River drainage of central Idaho in the Snake River basin. While very few Sockeye Salmon currently follow an anadromous life cycle, the small remnant run of the historical population migrates 900 miles downstream from the Sawtooth Valley through the Salmon, Snake and Columbia Rivers to the ocean (Figure ES-1). After one to three years in the ocean, they return to the Sawtooth Valley as adults, passing once again through these mainstem rivers and through eight major federal dams, four on the Columbia River and four on the lower Snake River. Anadromous Sockeye Salmon returning to Redfish Lake in Idaho’s Sawtooth Valley travel a greater distance from the sea (900 miles) to a higher elevation (6,500 feet) than any other Sockeye Salmon population. They are the southernmost population of Sockeye Salmon in the world. Figure ES-1. Snake River Sockeye Salmon migration corridor from Columbia River estuary to Sawtooth Valley lakes. Before the turn of the twentieth century, an estimated 150,000 Sockeye Salmon returned annually to the Snake River basin. Sockeye Salmon ascended the Snake River to the Wallowa River basin in northeastern Oregon and the Payette and Salmon River basins in Idaho to spawn in natural lakes.

  • Management Indicator Species (MIS) Were
    2009 Sawtooth Aquatic Management Indicator Species Monitoring Report John Chatel – Forest Aquatics Program Manager Dan Kenney – Zone Fisheries Biologist Scott Vuono – SNRA Aquatic Ecologist Introduction In order to evaluate the effects of management practices on fisheries and wildlife resources, the U.S. Forest Service monitors select species whose population trends are believed to reflect the effects of management activities on Forest ecosystems. These species are termed “management indicator species” (MIS) and the rationale for MIS monitoring is outlined in federal regulation 36 CFR 219.19. “In order to estimate the effects of each alternative on fish and wildlife populations, certain vertebrate and/or invertebrate species present in the area shall be identified and selected as management indicator species and the reasons for their selection will be stated. These species shall be selected because their population changes are believed to indicate the effects of management activities.” “Population trends of the management indicator species will be monitored and relationships to habitat changes determined.” An important criterion integral to the MIS foundation is that monitoring results must allow managers to answer questions about population trends. Historically, monitoring of habitat was 1 used a surrogate for direct quantification of MIS populations. However, recent court cases (Sierra Club v. Martin, 168 F.3d 1 (11th Cir. 1999)) have ruled that assessing changes in habitat will no longer be accepted as a substitute for direct monitoring of populations. The Forest Service has an obligation to collect and analyze quantitative population trend data at both the Forest-plan and project level. In response to issues raised by court challenges, the Sawtooth, Boise, and Payette National Forests revisited aquatic MIS species for the Draft Forest Plan EIS to determine if the population data were sufficient to determine trend at the Forest scale.
