Title: Shasta Salmon Salvage Efforts: Coleman National Fish Hatchery on Battle Creek, 1895–1992
[ View / Download (links to another website) ]
Abstract/Description: For well over a century, Californians have sought to compensate for depleted salmon runs in the upper Sacramento River Basin by creating fish hatcheries. Beginning in 1872, fish culturalist Livingstone Stone located the West’s first fish hatchery on the lower McCloud River. Between 1870 and 1960, 169 significant public and private fish hatcheries and egg collecting stations were operated throughout the state (Leitritz 1970, p 11). The fifth hatchery to be owned and managed by the US Commission of Fish and Fisheries (later renamed the US Fish Commission), was the Battle Creek Station located near Anderson.
