Species Covered in This Notice

    This notice is relevant to the federally-listed threatened 
California Central Valley (CCV) steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss) 
distinct population segment.

New Application Received

    The USBR, in affiliation with the San Joaquin River Restoration 
Program (SJRRP), requests a 3-year permit to conduct the SJRRP 
Steelhead Monitoring Plan (SMP) in the San Joaquin River upstream of 
the Merced River confluence, in the Central Valley, California.
    The SJRRP intends to research the presence or absence of CCV 
steelhead within the SJRRP restoration area, defined as the mainstem 
San Joaquin River from Friant Dam to the confluence of the Merced 
River. The SMP focuses monitoring efforts on the CCV steelhead adult 
migration from mid-December through mid-March when the SJRRP Interim 
Flows Project is implemented to maintain sufficient river conditions 
for fish in the SJRRP restoration area.
    The SMP includes several sampling methodologies in response to 
monitoring challenges in the restoration area. Trammel nets will be 
deployed to drift during short durations in high velocity water in 
areas where adult steelhead are most likely to be present. Raft mounted 
electrofishers will be used to navigate through shallow water (e.g., 
backwater sloughs, around in-river structures, under bypasses) 
locations where other sampling methodologies are ineffective. Fyke nets 
with wing walls and fish traps will be deployed for effective sampling 
during pulse flows, flood releases, and high riverine turbidity. 
Monitoring staff will employ best management practices and follow NMFS 
electrofishing guidelines to minimize sampling effects on fish.
    All captured steelhead will be recorded, measured, identified as to

in the study area. Sampled fish will then be transported by tank truck 
equipped with oxygen diffusers, and acclimated to river temperature 
prior to release into suitable habitat downstream of the mouth of the 
Merced River.
    The SMP will monitor continuously from December 1 through March 31 
throughout the study period. USBR requests authorization for an 
estimated annual non-lethal take of 6 steelhead by fyke net, 10 
steelhead by electrofisher, and 2 steelhead by trammel net. No indirect 
mortality is anticipated during fish capture, sampling and release
