    Interrogation event log for the Mid-Valley Pond Acclimation Site (MVP)-
    2012
    release
    Installation of the PIT tag interrogation system (Upstream Antenna, 01)
    for
    the Mid-Valley Pond began on March 23 at 16:10 hrs.  This detection system
    was located approximately 10 meters downstream from the north-eastern
    outlet
    of the pond.  A total of eight files were downloaded.  On April 14, water
    levels in the pond rose significantly due to an upstream beaver dam
    removal
    by the property care takers.  Due to this, escapement occurred sometime
    during the night of August 14 through April 15.  The barrier net was
    re-secured, however fish continued to appear in detection systems up to
    the
    release date.  Detection efficiencies during this event was low, due to
    the
    presence of a singular detection system.  It is estimated that the escape
    included a 30% depletion of the total population, while tag hits only
    account for 25%.  This detection system was pulled from the channel on May
    15, 2012 at 12:00 hrs, after 3 days of zero tag detections and a snorkel
    survey to confirm site as void of juvenile spring chinook.
    Detection system (02) was placed in the channel and started interrogation
    on
    April 16, 2012 at 10:00 hrs.  This system was located 5 meters downstream
    from the uppermost antenna (01).  This antenna was then moved on April 17
    roughly 10 meters downstream from the south-eastern outfall of the pond to
    better apprehend tags.  Due to this relocation, 01 was offline for the
    period of time from 15:11 to 15:42.  On May 1 at 03:19, staff noticed that
    the antenna for system (02) was reading a current of 1.9.  This antenna
    only
    picked up 50 tags between the download on April 30 and the check at 03:19.
    The current was adjusted back to 3.8 immediately.  A total of six files
    were
    downloaded.  This detection system was downloaded one last time and taken
    out on May 7, 2012 at 13:15 hrs when it was found that the antenna had
    leaked and was rendered non-functioning.
    Detection system (03) was placed in the channel and started interrogation
    on
    April 17, 2012 at 13:55 hrs.  This antenna was never moved, and did not
    experience any lapse in coverage.  A total of seven files were downloaded.
    Detection system (03) was taken out on May 15, 2012 at 12:05 hrs.
