  • Fish Consumption Advisories Available for 2010
    Fish Consumption Advisories Available for 2010 The West Virginia Department of Health and Human Resources (DHHR) has updated the West Virginia Sport Fish Consumption Advisory for 2010. West Virginia DHHR, through an interagency agreement, partners with the West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) and the Division of Natural Resources (DNR) to develop consumption advisories for fish caught in West Virginia. Fish consumption advisories are reviewed annually and help West Virginia anglers make educated choices about eating the fish they catch. Certain West Virginia sport fish have been found to have low levels of chemicals like polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), mercury, selenium and dioxin. To protect the good health of West Virginians, the West Virginia DHHR offers an advisory for how often these fish can be safely eaten. An advisory is advice, and should not be viewed as law or regulation. It is intended to help anglers and their families make educated choices about: where to fish, what types of fish to eat, how to limit the amount and frequency of fish eaten, and how to prepare and cook fish to reduce contaminants. This advisory covers only sport fish caught in West Virginia waters. Safety regulations and advisories for fish in the market place are the responsibility of the Federal Food and Drug Administration (FDA). For more information you can contact the FDA at: http://www.fda.gov/Food/ResourcesForYou/Consumers/ucm110591.htm The following updated 2010 advisory recommendation is the result of reviewing new and recent fish tissue data. Data collected from lakes and rivers in West Virginia show that a general statewide advisory of sport‐caught fish is appropriate.

Project Title: Eastern Panhandle Brook Trout Reintroduction (WV) Project Period 10/31/2009 - 12/31/2011 Award Amount $22,309.72 Matching Contributions $22,163.00 Project Location Description (from Proposal) Projects are located in both Districts 1 and 2 in WV. Project Summary (from Proposal) Work with public and private partners to restore water quality and aquatic habitat in four headwater streams of the Cacapon River. Project will install livestock exclusion fencing, establish riparian buffers, and perform water quality monitoring to support the goal of reintroducing eastern brook trout to historical coldwater streams in Hampshire and Hardy Counties, West Virginia. Summary of Accomplishments This Project: a) Restored native vegetation along 3,100 linear feet of streams with an average buffer width of 35 feet (approximately 5 acres); b) Engaged four landowners and 102 volunteers in tree and shrub plantings, educational activities, water quality monitoring, and conservation planning; c) Developed detailed temperature profiles of five streams to and a water quality “snapshot” of Meadow Branch; and d) Piqued WVDNR interest in salmonid restoration or reintroduction in three streams. Lessons Learned Lessons learned include: a) Filling vacancies quickly and planning for project coverage during transition can mitigate the loss of key teammates; b) Tighter oversight of volunteer monitors and interns and regular team meetings would yield more consistent data collection and reporting; c) It is ambitious to make reintroduction of brook trout to previously unstudied streams a project period outcome; d) Brook trout continue to be a valuable focus for landowner outreach (i.e.

This study was conducted to determine which streamside salamander species were sympatric and how environmental variables may have influenced habitat choices. One hundred sixty streams were surveyed throughout 55 counties in West Virginia during the summer of 2007. At each site, a 10 m2 quadrat was established around a central aquatic habitat.
