  1. Evaluation of Fish Passage Distribution at the Ice Harbor Removable Spillway Weir, 2006 Kenneth Ham Shawn Reese Scott Titzler Russ Moursund

  2. Objective • Evaluate the distribution of fish approaching and passing the Ice Harbor Removable Spillway Weir (RSW) relative to balloon tag and sensor fish device release elevations 2

  3. Methods:2006 RSW Sampling Included Frame Mount and New Magnet-Mount Deployments 3

  4. Results:Fish Pass Near the Surface in Spring 4

  5. Fish Passage is Deeper in Summer 5

  6. Vertical Distribution At Release Pipe Similar Across Deployments 6

  7. Conclusions • Fish pass near the RSW crest • 11% and 27% at or below the 1.5ft release point in the spring and summer, respectively • Similar results regardless of deployment • Late Summer conditions increase the proportion passing near the crest • Higher RSW Proportion of flow (less tainter spill) would likely result in a higher proportion of passage • Migrants distributed nearer RSW crest than other periods 7
