Each spring in the Lower Columbia River (LCR) below Hugh L. Keenleyside Dam (HLK) and in the Lower Kootenay River (LKR) below Brilliant Dam, thousands of Rainbow Trout spawn. Since 1992, BC Hydro has stabilized the spring discharge releases from HLK to protect Rainbow Trout redds from dewatering.
The primary goal of the current analysis to answer the following management question:
Does the implementation of Rainbow Trout Spawning Protection Flows over the course of the monitoring period lead to an increase in the relative abundance of Rainbow Trout spawning in the LCR downstream of HLK dam?
