Page 20 The INDEPENDENT, November 6, 2003 From page 2 fice of ODF&W and talked to Kevin Goodson, an assistant district fish biologist. According to Goodson, one purpose of the research facility is to put Oregon, again, in the front line of salmon research. Oregon used to be a leader in fish re search and has fallen way behind in recent years. The new facility will also be charged with finding answers to questions about wild fish ver sus hatchery fish - the impact of hatchery fish on wild fish, ways to improve hatchery practices and hatchery fish, and multitudes of other ques tions about hatchery interactions with the natural environment and native fish. Plans for the facility are still on the drawing board, but it will be designed to allow great flex ibility, as will the avenues for investigation. An In dependent Multidisciplinary Science Team (IMST) is in charge of developing a work plan for the new facility. The facility already has the basic concrete ponds, but modifications will make the ponds and raceways act more like streams. There are also preliminary plans to construct multiple streams at the facility. The purpose of this kind of remodel is an attempt to mimic what occurs naturally in a stream and document the effects upon hatchery-raised fish compared to wild fish. Oregon State University has partnered with ODF&W and the research facility will become a learning center for OSU. It will also provide a place for graduate and postgraduate study. ODF&W anticipates that, by partnering with OSU, they will have an edge in hiring the bright- — ---------------------------------------------------------------- I est and best graduates from OSU. When I first heard about the siphoning of Measure 66 funds, I was concerned that the state legislature had, once again, done an end run around the intent of the original measure. I was surprised to learn, though, that the idea be hind the new research facility actually came from ODF&W, in fact from Director Lindsay Ball. I called Lindsay, who was modest about accepting credit for his idea because others had the same idea, but it was through his talks with legislators and his direction to his own personnel that this plan has come together. Ball is deeply con cerned about Oregon having fallen so far behind in salmon research and he feels that we need answers to the questions about hatchery fish versus wild fish. In talking with Ball, it is apparent that he feels there is a place for both wild fish and hatchery fish; the question is just how they fit together and what can be done on the hatch ery level to ease negative impacts on wild fish. In my opinion, the new research facility is a positive step; without knowledge we cannot manage effectively. We should not expect quick answers, though, because much of this research will require multiple generations, which, in fish life times, means 12-15 years.
