Okanogan Basin Spring Chinook. Compensation for Okanogan Basin spring chinook will be assessed in 2007 following the development of a long-term spring chinook hatchery program and/or the establishment of a Threshold Population of naturally reproducing spring chinook in the Okanogan watershed (by an entity other than the District and occurring outside this Agreement). The Hatchery Committee shall make a determination on whether a hatchery program and/or naturally reproducing population of spring chinook is present in the Okanogan Basin. Should the Hatchery Committee determine that such a program and/or population exists, then the Hatchery Committee shall determine the most appropriate means to satisfy NNI for Okanogan Basin spring chinook. Programs to meet NNI for Okanogan Basin spring chinook may include but not be limited to; 1) provide O & M funding in the amount equivalent to 3.8% project passage loss or 2) replace project passage losses of hatchery spring chinook with annual releases of equivalent numbers of yearling summer chinook into the Okanogan River Basin or 3) provide funding for acclimation or provide funding for adult collection facilities in the amount equivalent to 3.8% juvenile passage loss at the Xxxxx Project. The programs selected to achieve NNI for Okanogan Basin spring chinook will utilize an interim value of project survival based upon the three-year average Juvenile Project Survival estimate of 96.2% until project survival studies can be conducted on Okanogan Basin yearling chinook.
