Threatened bull trout release
T h e C o n fe d erate d Tribes,
Portland G eneral Electric and
federal and state agencies are re
in troducing bull tro u t to the
fish’s historic habitat.
This week the bull trout are
b e in g re le a se d in to th e
Clackam as R iver on the Mt.
H ood National Forest.
The release event is sched
uled for 1-2 p.m. on Thursday,
June 30. The site is 45 miles east
o f the town o f Estacada.
Prior to the releases o f bull
trout there will be several short
streamside presentations or op
portunities to speak by represen
tatives from the primary agen
cies implementing this action.
The tribes, PG E , the Oregon
D epartm ent o f Fish and Wild
life, the U.S. Forest Service and
the N ational Marine Fisheries
Service are participating.
T he réin tro d u c tio n o f the
treatened bull trout is being done
p u rsu a n t to the E n d a n g e re d
Species Act.
The Clackamas réintroduc
tion is part o f a broad strategy
to restore the fish to their his
toric habitat. Bull trout from a
wild healthy population in the
Metolius River are being used
for the Clackamas project.
Biologists will release five to
10 adult bull trout at the event
release site. Up to 50 additional
adult bull trout may be released
that day or subsequent days at
o th e r locations in th e u p p er
Clackamas River consistent with
our strategy to disperse the re
leases.
While this event highlights re-
in tro d u ctio n o f the initial 60
adult fish, the long term strat
egy also includes reintroducing
about 1,000 juvenile bull trout
annually for seven to 15 years.
While threatened bull trout
are native to numerous N o rth
western rivers, the last known
Clackamas bull trout was docu
mented nearly five decades ago.
The goal o f this effort is to re
establish a self-sustaining popu
lation o f 300-500 adults within
20 years.
The réintroduction is part o f
a multi-state recovery strategy.
This réintroduction may lead to
other similar efforts to eventu
ally reconnect fragmented popu
lations o f bull trout throughout
O re g o n , W ashington, Idaho,
M ontana, and Nevada. For fur
ther information, including direc
tions to the Thursday release site,

life Service at 503-231-6179.
