There is very little-known regarding ESA listed juvenile green sturgeon movement through the Sacramento River. This specialized equipment and data processing by VEMCO/Innovasea will aid in understanding juvenile green sturgeon migration patterns which will be critical information for mitigation consultation with NMFS and will satisfy our environmental compliance with terms and conditions required by NMFS BO’s. The required hydro-acoustic equipment is necessary for implementation of two-dimensional telemetric monitoring of fish movement (ESA listed salmon, steelhead, and green sturgeon) to support the development of a fish habitat planning model for several Sacramento District Levee Protection Projects. The fish habitat model is being developed to support planning and design processes, as well as environmental compliance with terms and conditions of Biological Opinions (BO’s) from the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS).
