Outline• Reach survival• Hydropower system survival• Hydropower system travel time• Seasonal effects of transport• PIT tag trawl• Bird predation
Reach Survival Estimates
• Used to assess progress in improving inriver travel time and survival and identify problem areas in the hydropower system
Reach Survival Estimates
• Used to assess progress in improving inriver travel time and survival and identify problem areas in the hydropower system
• Relies mostly on tagging from other studies throughout the basin

Reach Survival Estimates
• Used to assess progress in improving inriver travel time and survival and identify problem areas in the hydrosystem
• Relies mostly on tagging from other studies throughout the basin
• Under represented species tagged at Lower Granite (wild Chinook, wild and hatchery steelhead)
• Estimates are from tailrace to tailrace (1 dam and reservoir)
