Concerns from Project Biologist Region wants current hazing or more
► Unsustainable under O&M budget forecast► Benefits hazing vs. political reality?
• JD Consumption:
6k (0.02%) of 31 M smolt in 2011
38k (0.27%) of 40 M smolt in 2010(Zorich et al. 2011)
Maintenance cost of extensive line array JD► $6 M to build, 125 synthetic lines 3,000 ft. long► Maintenance will increase as lines age and fail
