B2J - Bonneville PH2 Juvenile
Status: Active - OperationalGeneral Operational Period: Seasonally
Start Date: 5/14/1996 8:33 PM
This site monitors the juvenile bypass and sampling facility of the second powerhouse at Bonneville Dam. The site operates seasonally for juvenile outmigration and includes antennas in the full flow bypass flume that is often active before and after the sampling facility each year. Separation by Code is also available to allow researchers to selectively divert PIT-tagged fish to two separate sample tanks for additional sampling.

To update a previously-submitted event log on 11 March 2022: Sampling at Bonneville Smolt Monitoring Facility (B2J) was suspended from 11 March until 21 March due to emergency releases of approximately 10.8 million tule fall Chinook from Spring Creek NFH stemming from an outbreak of Bacterial Gill Disease. Sampling was suspended to prevent exposure of this pathogen to run-of-river fish in our collection tanks and to allow the bulk of these fish to pass the project. Normal collection activities resumed at 0700 on Monday, 21 March. |
