- Description
- The Bureau of Reclamation, Folsom Dam has a requirement to conduct an escapement survey of fall-run Chinook salmon in the Stanislaus River 2005 - 2006. Estimate the escapement of fall-run Chinook salmon in the Stanislaus River using the Jolly-Seber (JS) population model. Evaluate the distribution of salmon redds throughout the study area. This will provide data to evaluate the success of past and on-going gravel addition projects. Collect fork-length and sex data for Chinook salmon observed during the survey. Collect scale and otolith samples with which to conduct age determination and subsequent cohort analysis. Collect DNA samples for storage at the CDFG Salmonid Tissue Archive for subsequent genetic analysis. Collect and analyze coded wire tag data from marked hatchery fish to determine escapement contribution of hatchery produced salmon, and evaluate smolt survival. Collect information regarding egg retention. For each fresh female carcass, use a qualitative scale to measure egg retention where: completely spawned = 0 to 30% eggs remaining, partially spawned = >30 and < 70% eggs remaining, and unspawned = nearly full ovaries. Prepare and read a minimum of 100 scale samples for age determination. Documentation of this activity can be included in the final escapement report or prepared as a separate document if additional time is required. Analyze escapement data for at least 3 years (i.e. 2003 - 2005 brood years) using POPAN-5 software. Special requirements and scientific collecting permits may be required to complete this survey. Solicitation 05SQ241451 will be posted at http://ideasec.nbc.gov on July 12, 2005, quotes due on or before August 15, 2005. The solicitation can be downloaded at the above site. Prospective vendors must be registered in the CCR database, http://www.ccr.gov prior to award of contract. Failure to register in CCR will make an offeror ineligible for award.
