Permit Application Received The RCD has applied for a permit (permit 15390) to study the endangered SC DPS of steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss) in streams emptying to the Santa Monica Bay of southern California, with specific focus on Topanga Creek, Arroyo Sequit, and Malibu Creek. The purpose of this study is to use monitoring methods to gather information that will contribute to the understanding of migration patterns, diet, and the abundance and distribution of steelhead in the subject streams. Monitoring methods include using direct underwater observation techniques for estimating abundance and distribution of steelhead, migratory trapping, and Passive Integrated Transponder (PIT) tagging. Sampling methods to obtain steelhead for abundance counts and PIT tagging may include hand nets, seine nets, angling, fyke traps, and electrofishing. Field activities will occur between June 2010 and December 2020. The RCD has requested an annual non-lethal take of 1150 juvenile steelhead, 100 smolts, and 10 adult steelhead as well as an annual collection and possession of up to 950 steelhead tissue samples and 10 steelhead carcasses. The 100 smolts and up to 850 juvenile steelhead (depending on size) could be processed for PIT tags. Adult steelhead may be captured in fyke traps, but will be released without being PIT tagged.
