This report summarizes the activities of the Umatilla Basin Natural Production Monitoring and Evaluation Project from September 30, 1993 to September 29, 1994. A total of 39.4 miles of stream habitat was inventoried on the Umatilla River, Squaw Creek, Camp Creek, and an un-named tributary of Camp Creek. The overall habitat quality of the Umatilla River and Squaw Creek was classified as poor. The overall habitat quality of Camp Creek and the un-named tributary was fair. A total of 565 of 4,928 habitat units were sampled for fish using backpack electrofishers. The total population estimate of salmon and trout in all streams sampled was 74,972, and density was 0.0799/M{sup 2}. Forty permanent index sites were established to monitor relative species abundance. Each site was electrofished in the spring, summer, and fall. A total of 44 additional presence/absence surveys were conducted during one or more of the three time periods.
