Abstract

The Pacific Lamprey Conservation Initiative (PLCI) is a collaboration of Tribes, Federal, and State agencies working together to protect and restore Pacific Lamprey (Entosphenus tridentatus) and other native lampreys (i.e., Lampetra spp.) in Alaska, Washington, Oregon, California, and Idaho. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service hosts and facilitates the PLCI, and the Columbia River Tribes play a large role in setting conservation goals and defining research needs. The PLCI annually solicits proposals for research and restoration activities, which are reviewed and ranked in collaboration with the Bonneville Power Administration (BPA), who annually provides funding to support PLCI priority proposals. This report summarizes two research projects selected through PLCI, and funded under one BPA contract, in support of Pacific Lamprey conservation. The two projects were not topically related apart from a common theme of potential stressors to lampreys and are being reported together because they were combined under one BPA agreement for contracting.
