Environmental impacts of the fish hatchery expansion alternative are addressed. It is possible that numbers and species of fish produced could change through a future cooperative ODF and W/CTUIR hatchery master planning process. However, the environmental impacts of an expanded hatchery are expected to be basically the same as described in this document. The master plan includes the following information for the proposed Umatilla Fish Hatchery: rearing schedules and release sites and schedules; a detailed production profile that includes numbers of fish to be released and expected annual adult returns; harvest strategies for naturally and hatchery produced fish; proposed management policies and hatchery practices which will ensure that hatchery releases are coordinated with other fishery management agencies and tribes in the Columbia River Basin; and a proposal for biological monitoring and evaluation of the hatchery program. Development of the Umatilla Fish Hatchery, a joint agency effort, is designed to preserve and enhance summer steelhead and possibly spring and fall chinook salmon stocks of the Umatilla River. The hatchery would provide increased harvest opportunities to the commercial, ceremonial, and subsistence fisheries of the CTUIR and the regional sport fishery.
