The Juvenile Fish Monitoring Program is currently in the process of implementing a natural resource pathways HACCP plan for beach seining. A concurrent plan which addresses the use of boats to conduct field sampling in the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta and Estuary is also being implemented. The purpose of our natural resource HACCP plan is to minimize the spread of hitchhiking non-target species which could become invasive to the rivers, delta and estuary. The HACCP plan identifies potential hazards field studies may pose to the spread of non-target species and specific control measures directed to minimize the spread of these species.
