Lower Snake River Compensation Program (LSRCP) hatcheries produce and release salmon, steelhead, and resident rainbow trout as part of the program's mitigation responsibility. Mitigation goals for the LSRCP program include returning 55,100 adult steelhead, 58,700 adult spring/summer Chinook salmon, and 18,300 fall Chinook salmon to the Snake River. To mitigate lost angler days for resident species, the LSRCP program stocks about 86,000 pounds of rainbow trout into inland lakes and ponds close to the project area. Learn More>>
