Hatchery Reform in the Pacific Northwest WDFW Phase 2 Training May 12 th 2015 Hatchery Scientific Review Group

Overview of Presentations Part 1: HSRG principles and key terms Part 2: AHA (All-H Analyzer) and Rollup Tool Part 3: Hatchery Reform Implementation tools

The Hatchery Reform Project is a systematic, science-driven review of hatchery programs to achieve two goals: 1. Help conserve naturally spawning populations 2. Support sustainable fisheries (both commercial and recreational)

Principles of Hatchery Management GOALS SCIENTIFIC DEFENSIBILITY INFORMED DECISION MAKING

The Purpose of Hatcheries Hatchery programs are designed to meet specific management goals: 1) Conservation Goals 2) Harvest Augmentation 3) Both

HSRG 201 Definition of terms pnob, PNI, phos Census, effective, gene flow Framework Goals for populations, purpose of hatchery Phases of Restoration Preservation, re-colonization, local adaptation, full restoration Population Designations Primary, Contributing, Stabilizing All-H Analyzer (AHA)

Definition of Terms (used to estimate the direction and amount of gene flow) pnob = % Natural Origin fish in the hatchery broodstock phos = % Hatchery Origin fish on the spawning grounds PNI = Proportionate Natural Influence pnob/(pnob+phos)

Definition of Terms - continued phos census = % Hatchery Origin fish on the spawning grounds. Rough estimate of gene flow. phos effective = estimated % Hatchery Origin fish on the spawning grounds that actually reproduce (less than phosc). Better estimate of gene flow. PEHC = Proportion Effective Hatchery Contribution. Actual measurement of gene flow through use of genetic techniques. Best estimate of gene flow.

Genetic Integration or Segregation Integrated Broodstock Goal: One population, Minimize genetic divergence (Natural-origin fish in broodstock) Segregated Broodstock Goal: Two populations, Allow genetic divergence (Only Hatchery fish in broodstock) Hatchery Natural Hatchery Natural One gene pool Two gene pools

HSRG 201 Definition of terms pnob, PNI, phos Census, effective, gene flow Framework Goals for populations, purpose of hatchery Phases of Restoration Preservation, re-colonization, local adaptation, full restoration Population Designations Primary, Contributing, Stabilizing All-H Analyzer (AHA)

Framework Goals for Population Biological Significance (designation) Population Status (recovery phase) Harvest Objective (target catch) Purpose of Hatchery Program Harvest Augmentation Integrated or Segregated Conservation Preservation Re-colonization Local Adaptation

Goals for Population Biological Significance of the Population Primary Contributing Stabilizing Conservation Goals (status) Preservation (unsustainable) Re-colonization (habitat underutilized) Local Adaptation (sustainable with reduced fitness) Fully Restored (abundant and productive) Harvest Goals Where, when, how much

Purpose of Hatchery Program: Harvest Harvest Augmentation Integrated approach (one population) Increase harvestable surplus Maximize PNI (max pnob and min phos) Segregated (two populations) Increase harvestable surplus Minimize phos

Purpose of Hatchery Program: Conservation Conservation Goals Preservation (prevent extinction) Re-colonization (populate habitat) Local Adaptation (increase productivity) Safety net (population restored, but vulnerable)

HSRG 201 Definition of terms pnob, PNI, phos Census, effective, gene flow Framework Goals for populations, purpose of hatchery Phases of Restoration Preservation, re-colonization, local adaptation, full restoration Population Designations Primary, Contributing, Stabilizing All-H Analyzer (AHA)

Phases of Restoration (Classification of Conservation Programs) Phase 1: Preservation Phase 2: Re-colonization Phase 3: Local Adaptation Phase 4: Full Restoration

Phase 1: Preservation Objectives Prevent extinction Retain genetic diversity and identity of existing population Increase abundance Ecosystem Conditions Low population abundance Habitat unable to support self-sustaining population. Purpose of Hatchery Program Increase abundance Retain diversity Provide harvest

Phase 2: Re-colonization Objective Re-populate suitable habitat from prespawning adult to out-migrating smolt (all life stages). Ecosystem Conditions Underutilized habitat available through restoration and improved access. Purpose of Hatchery Speed colonization Increase spatial diversity Provide harvest

Phase 3: Local Adaptation Objectives Meet and exceed minimum viable spawner abundance for natural-origin spawners Increase fitness, reproductive success and life history diversity through local adaptation (reduce hatchery influence by maximizing PNI). Ecosystem Conditions Habitat capable of supporting abundances that minimize risk of extinction, prevent loss of genetic diversity, and promote life history diversity. Purpose of Hatchery Provide harvest (Integrated) Demographic safety net

Phase 4: Full Restoration Objective Maintain viable population, based on all viable salmonid population (VSP) attributes using long-term adaptive management. Ecosystem Conditions Habitat restored and protected to allow full expression of abundance, productivity, lifehistory diversity, and spatial distribution. Purpose of Hatchery Provide harvest (Integrated) Demographic safety net

Moving between Phases Biologically based triggers (abundance, productivity), rather than timelines. Triggers should allow movement both up and down the Phases. The larger the trigger threshold, the longer local adaptation benefits (e.g., increased productivity) are deferred.

Hatcheries can play a role in each Phase of Conservation while still supplying harvest benefits Program can be larger than needed during Preservation or Re-colonization phase. Operate 2 programs (one for conservation ( safety net ), one for harvest) during Local Adaptation or Full Recovery Phase.

How HSRG Standards apply during Phases of Restoration 1) Preservation - no phos, PNI standards 2) Re-colonization - no phos, PNI standards 3) Local Adaptation - all standards apply 4) Full Restoration - all standards apply

Example of Current Program Redfish Lake Sockeye Program: Preservation (Phase 1) secure genetic resources (completed) Re-colonization (Phase 2) increase abundance and distribution Shift to Phase 3 when NORs reaches 750 Shift back to Phase 1 when NOR+HOR falls to 50 Current phase Local Adaptation (Phase 3) demographic safety net Shift back to Phase 2 when NORs falls below 500

HSRG 201 Definition of terms pnob, PNI, phos Census, effective, gene flow Framework Goals for populations, purpose of hatchery Phases of Restoration Preservation, re-colonization, local adaptation, full restoration Population Designations Primary, Contributing, Stabilizing All-H Analyzer (AHA)

Population Designations What the HSRG uses (LCRSRP): Primary biologically significant, core, key, highly viable, important to recovery. Historically were a large segment of the population structure. Need to be at low risk of extinction. Contributing of some significance, are viable but lower in abundance than Primary. Contribute to diversity. Stabilizing a population, but may not have ever been a large segment of the population structure.

Designation Standards for Populations in Local Adaptation or Recovery Phase Primary Integrated hatchery programs PNI > 0.67, phos < 30% Segregated hatchery programs Contributing phos < 5% Integrated hatchery programs PNI > 0.50, phos < 30% Segregated hatchery programs Stabilizing phos < 10% Integrated hatchery programs current condition Segregated hatchery programs current condition

Part 2: All-H Analyzer and Rollup Tool

Principles of Hatchery Management GOALS SCIENTIFIC DEFENSIBILITY INFORMED DECISION MAKING

All-H Analyzer (AHA) The HSRG developed AHA in 2005, and AHA rollup in 2007 as part of the Columbia Basin Hatchery Review, completed in 2009 The All-H Analyzer incorporates information about the 4 H s: hatchery, harvest, hydro, and habitat The purpose of AHA is to provide managers with information on the potential outcomes of different management strategies AHA is used to estimate production (NORs, HORs), fitness, harvest levels, etc. for a given population and management strategy

What is AHA Really? AHA is a gene flow calculator. It uses 4 H s as inputs. Currency is adult spawning fish (wild & hatchery). Calculates the number of natural and hatchery fish produced and where they end up spawning. Result is an estimate of the fitness loss due to domestication. It estimates fitness gain when domestication pressure is removed (estimates the increased productivity of natural stocks).

Examples of AHAs 1) Single population AHA 2) Columbia Basin AHA Rollup

Single Population AHA

Single Population AHA Evaluates one population at a time. Provides long-term estimates of production (NORs, HORs) and harvest for different management strategies for that population Provides long-term (80 generation) equilibrium estimate for fitness of natural population. Doesn t consider strays from other programs outside the basin.

Rollup View

Advantages of the AHA Rollup Contains all populations in the Columbia River Basin (including Snake). Has data on the H s for each population. Distributes strays across populations (using basic matrix, with some validation using CWTs). Ability to change hydro or harvest assumptions universally for all populations. Can roll up production (NORs, HORs) and harvest by species, region, ESU.

Part 3: Tools for Hatchery Reform Implementation

Tools for Hatchery Reform Implementation Several tools have been developed that incorporate AHA and the following components: Up-to-date management database Key Assumptions about the population (working hypothesis) Status and Trends data Biological Targets Decision Rules Management Targets for upcoming season

Hatchery management in the face of uncertainty and variability Biological Targets are expressed in terms of biological indicators (e.g. average NOS, phos, and PNI). Biological targets don t change from year to year. They may be defined as 5-year running averages. Management Targets are expressed in terms of controlled variables (e.g., annual release #, pnob, catch). Management targets may vary from year to year based on status and trends and run forecast. Decision Rules link management targets to biological targets. They define the right thing to do each year given the circumstances (i.e., status and trends and forecasts).

Hatchery management in the face of uncertainty and variability KEY ASSUMPTIONS (AHA Inputs) AHA BIOLOGICAL TARGETS (AHA Outputs) ISIT DECISION RULES Annual MANAGEMENT TARGETS (ISIT Outputs)

Examples of Hatchery Reform Implementation 1) Chief Joseph Hatchery Program 2) Redfish Lake Sockeye Program 3) Willapa Bay

Chief Joseph Hatchery Program Goals Biological Targets for Okanogan Summer/Fall Chinook: 7,500 total spawners 5,250 natural origin spawners (NOS) Total phos (all programs) < 30% Segregated program phos <5% PNI > 0.67 Increase temporal and spatial diversity of spawning/rearing populations Harvest Goals: Harvest full allocation Increase % of individual tribal member harvest

In-Season Implementation Tool (ISIT) An ISIT was developed to help managers make annual decisions about how to manage the population: Hatchery production: # of smolt releases Broodstock management: # of HOB and NOB Escapement: targets for NORs and HORs Harvest levels: targets for HORs and NORs Weir management: removal targets for HORs The purpose of the tool is to help the program meet long term Conservation and Harvest goals

Examples of Hatchery Reform Implementation 1) Chief Joseph Hatchery Program 2) Redfish Lake Sockeye Program 3) Willapa Bay

Willapa Bay Program Goals Harvest is the primary objective (commercial and recreational) The programs must also be managed consistent with conservation goals for natural spawning populations Coordinated management of multiple populations: 6 Chinook populations 6 coho populations 6 chum populations

The Life Cycle Model is designed to help managers make coordinated decisions about populations with a range of different designations, phases, and hatchery programs.

Willapa Bay Life Cycle Model Predicts annual outcomes for natural and hatchery populations and provides a more realistic picture of what is likely to happen in the short term. Allows for implementation of dynamic harvest and hatchery policies based on annual abundance. Presents outcomes as a range, rather than a point estimate (emphasizes uncertainty). Incorporates multiple populations and accounts for population interactions.
