Abstract: This project will help rebuild the Port Graham salmon hatchery that was destroyed by fire on January 13, 1998. The Port Graham hatchery was involved in the rehabilitation and enhancement of local pink salmon, sockeye salmon and coho salmon stocks for the benefit of both the local subsistence and commercial fisheries. These stocks are of major social, cultural and economic importance to the area and sustained injuries resulting from oil spill clean-up efforts. This project will contribute partial funding for construction of a salmon hatchery to replace the one that was destroyed in the fire.
