Abstract: This project will replace lost subsistence services resulting from the oil spill by conducting an inventory and assessment for enhancement projects on the four major salmon streams in the Lower Cook Inlet spill area. In FY 98 and FY 99, protection and enhancement projects will be implemented using instream fisheries habitat improvement techniques, primarily creation of spawning channels, removal of natural barriers to spawning, and construction of wall-based rearing structures. Local subsistence users will be employed as technical assistants during field surveys and construction. Port Graham Corporation will share costs of this project.
