first ten juvenile coho, chum, pink, and
hatchery Chinook captured during each
sampling event would be killed and
tissue samples (gill, kidney, heart)
would be taken. Any remaining fish
from each sample would be
anesthetized, identified by species,
measured, checked for sea lice, and
released.

Permit 18819
The WFC is seeking a five-year permit
to annually take juvenile and adult PS
Chinook salmon, HCS chum salmon,
and PS steelhead. The WFC research
may also cause them to take Southern
eulachon, a species for which there are
currently no ESA take prohibitions. The
purpose of the study is to determine the
relative abundance, distribution, and
emigration timing of juvenile chum
salmon in the Hood Canal and tidallyinfluenced portions of its major
tributaries. The research would benefit
the affected species by determining
juvenile salmonid out-migrant timing,
use of nearshore rearing habitats, and
key habitat associations (i.e. eelgrass
and kelp beds, gravel beaches, mudflats,
and modified vs. unmodified
shorelines). Sampling would take place
in 30 locations throughout Hood Canal.
The WFC proposes to use fyke nets and
beach seines to capture fish twice each
month from December through May.
The salmonids and steelhead would be
identified by species and enumerated. A
subset of all fish would also be
measured, and tissue samples would be
taken from the chum and wild Chinook
salmon. Juvenile coded-wire tagged
(CWT) coho and Chinook salmon would
be sacrificed to determine their
hatcheries of origin and to provide
stock-specific information about how
and where they use nearshore habitats.
All other fish would be released after
handling. The researchers do not
propose to kill any other listed species
being captured, but a small number may
die as an unintended result of the
activities.
This notice is provided pursuant to
section 10(c) of the ESA. NMFS will
evaluate the applications, associated
documents, and comments submitted to
determine whether the applications
meet the requirements of section 10(a)
of the ESA and Federal regulations. The
final permit decisions will not be made
until after the end of the 30-day
comment period. NMFS will publish
notice of its final action in the Federal
Register.
