Description
Summary:The 2012 Upper Susitna River Fish Distribution and Habitat Study was implemented to collect information on fish distribution and abundance and to characterize aquatic habitat in the upper Susitna River watershed. The upper Susitna River is defined as the river reach above the proposed dam site (RM 184). There are three goals: (1) characterize aquatic habitat in the Susitna River and its tributaries/lakes above Devils Canyon upstream to and including the Oshetna River; (2) determine the distribution and relative abundance of adult chinook salmon in the Susitna River and its tributaries above Devils Canyon upstream to and including the Oshetna River; (3) determine the distribution and relative abundance of juvenile chinook salmon and other fish species present in the Susitna River and its tributaries and lakes above Devils Canyon upstream to and including the Oshetna River up to 3,000-foot elevation.
