C Series 23884
As a part of the Oroville Dam Project the State of California constructed this $3.2 million fish hatchery on the Feather River at Oroville. The annual migration of salmon and steelhead trout will be captured as they travel upstream as far as a fish barrier which will divert them into a fish ladder. The hatchery will handle 20 million eggs a year and will raise 9,000 yearling salmon each season in the long concrete rearing ponds. Visitors are welcome every day in the year |
