  • Unpublished Report No. 25 on FAD Deployment and Vertical Longline
    SOUTH PACIFIC COMMISSION UNPUBLISHED REPORT No. 25 ON FAD DEPLOYMENT AND VERTICAL LONGLINE FISHING IN PALAU 14 November 1991 – 31 October 1992 by Peter Watt Masterfisherman and Lindsay Chapman Fisheries Development Adviser South Pacific Commission Noumea, New Caledonia 1998 ii The South Pacific Commission authorises the reproduction of this material, whole or in part, in any form, provided appropriate acknowledgement is given. This unpublished report forms part of a series compiled by the Capture Section of the South Pacific Commission’s Coastal Fisheries Programme. These reports have been produced as a record of individual project activities and country assignments, from materials held within the Section, with the aim of making this valuable information readily accessible. Each report in this series has been compiled within the Capture Section to a technical standard acceptable for release into the public arena. However, they have not been through the full South Pacific Commission editorial process. On 6 February 1998 the South Pacific Commission (SPC) became the Pacific Community. The Secretariat of the Pacific Community (retaining the acronym SPC) is now the name for the body which administers the work program of the Pacific Community. The names have changed, the organisation and the functions continue. This report was prepared when the organisation was called the South Pacific Commission, and that is the name used in it. Please note that any reference to the South Pacific Commission, could refer to what is now the Secretariat of the Pacific Community, or, less likely, to the Pacific Community itself. South Pacific Commission BP D5 98848 Noumea Cedex New Caledonia Tel.: (687) 26 20 00 Fax: (687) 26 38 18 e-mail: [email protected] http://www.spc.org.nc/ Prepared at South Pacific Commission headquarters, Noumea, New Caledonia, 1998 iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The South Pacific Commission acknowledges with gratitude the support and assistance afforded the Masterfisherman by the individuals associated with the Deep Sea Fisheries Development Project while in Palau.

ABSTRACT Most of the dams built by the Bureau of Reclamation were completed before environmental regulations such as the Clean Water Act, National Environmental Protection Act, or Toxic Substances Control Act existed. The management and operation of dams was instituted under conditions where the ecology of the downstream habitat was unknown and largely ignored. Changing or modifying structures, flow regimes, and land use patterns are some of the efforts being pursued by the Bureau to reconcile or mitigate the effects of impoundment to comply with these environmental policies and to maximize the potential for recreation, fisheries, and water quality in tailwater habitats for the water resource users. The purpose of this report is to provide a reference document intended to aid in the management, compliance, and problem solving processes necessary to accomplish these goals in Bureau tailwater habitats.
