ESA Home News Framework Legal ... ESA Program Updated 01/15/04 The ESA listing of steelhead provides us an opportunity to do something extraordinary. The Portland City Council wants to be the first urban center that successfully restores a threatened aquatic species. Every step we take to restore the conditions that steelhead need is a step that is good for the City. Commissioner Erik Sten In March 1998 the National Marine Fisheries Service (NOAA Fisheries) listed the Lower Columbia Steelhead as a threatened species under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). One year later, NOAA Fisheries added Chinook salmon in the lower Columbia River to the list, as well as both steelhead and Chinook in the upper Willamette. The City of Portland recognizes that the restoration of steelhead and chinook salmon is no simple task. We know that our watersheds have been abused for decades. A little more than a century ago we had literally hundred of creeks and streams in the city. Most of these water bodies were home to steelhead, chinook salmon, coho, and a variety of aquatic species. Today we have only a handful of fish-bearing streams and those need help if we are ever to see the return of a healthy stock of native wild fish. Although the task is daunting, the Portland City Council is committed to this effort and we believe that our citizens are committed to a long-term program of watershed restoration. Not only will our native fish once again be in abundance; everyone will benefit from living in a clean and healthy watershed.

3. Pierce County ESA Response Report The response by Pierce County in Washington State to the listing of wild salmon as threatened under the endangered species act. http://www.salmoninfo.org/tricounty/piercesummary.htm

Executive Summary Pierce County ESA Response March 16, 1999 Contents: Section One - Background Section Two - Participating Agencies Section Three - Early Actions Section Four - Long Term Recovery Section One - Background In mid-March 1999 the National Marine Fisheries Services (NMFS) plans to list Puget Sound chinook salmon as threatened under the Endangered Species Act. The NMFS has proposed to designate all rivers and streams historically accessible to Puget Sound Chinook salmon as critical habitat. In addition, NMFS and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service have indicated that bull trout and other salmonid species may be listed in the near future. The Pierce County region is fully committed to do its part to ensure functional habitats needed to sustain healthy salmon populations are available. The region recognizes that full recovery will require a concerted long-term effort by the local, state, and federal governments, special interest groups and broad support by County residents. Addressing the factors responsible for the decline in salmonid habitats is likely to require important changes in land use policies, regulatory functions, programs, and services in order to preserve existing habitat and as well as habitat restoration projects. Pierce County government has worked closely with other jurisdictions to develop a strategy for preserving and restoring salmon habitat (see Section Two). This strategy has three main components: Rigorous implementation of the existing local regulations and programs that protect and enhance salmonid habitat.

6. Pacific Salmon (Endangered Species), Wildlife Species Information: U.S. Fish And Many salmon stocks are seriously threatened by what are called the severely reducedthat they have been listed as endangered or threatened species under the http://species.fws.gov/species_accounts/bio_salm.html

Pacific Salmon, ( Oncorhynchus spp. Line Art (3.6 K image) Line Art (3.6 K image) [US FWS Line Art by Robert Savannah] The upriver salmon migration is one of nature's most exciting dramas. But to the five species of Pacific salmon (chinook, chum, coho, pink, and sockeye), it is a long, strenuous, desperate race against time, with every obstacle taking its toll. Pacific salmon belong to a group called anadromous fish that includes Atlantic salmon, sturgeon, lampreys, shad, herring, sea- run cutthroat trout, and steelhead trout. These species hatch and live the first part of their lives in fresh water, then migrate to the ocean to spend their adult lives, which may be as short as 6 months or as long as 7 years. When they reach sexual maturity, they return to the freshwater stream of their origin to lay their eggs. Pacific salmon make the round trip only once, but some Atlantic salmon may repeat the cycle several times. Migration between fresh and salt water occurs during every season of the year, depending on latitude and genetic characteristics of the fish. Groups of fish that migrate together are called runs or stocks. Salmon spawn in virtually all types of freshwater habitat, from intertidal areas to high mountain streams. Pacific salmon may swim hundreds, even thousands, of miles to get back to the stream where they hatched. However, only a small percentage of salmon live to reach their natal stream or spawning grounds. Those males that survive the trip are often gaunt, with grotesquely humped backs, hooked jaws, and battle-torn fins. The females are swollen with a pound or more of eggs. Both have large white patches of bruised skin on their backs and sides.

ACTION: Notice of determination. SUMMARY: NMFS has determined that neither Elwha River nor lower Dungeness River pink salmon, as petitioned, constitute a ``species'' under the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (ESA). However, Elwha River and lower Dungeness River pink salmon are part of a larger evolutionarily significant unit (ESU) that includes all odd-year pink salmon stocks in Washington as far west as the Elwha River and in southern British Columbia, Canada (including the Fraser River and eastern Vancouver Island), as far north as Johnstone Strait. Further, NMFS has identified a second pink salmon ESU which includes even-year pink salmon residing in the Snohomish River, WA. NMFS has determined that, at the present time, neither of these ESUs warrant listing as a threatened or endangered species.
