Relationship of Delta Cross Channel Gate Operations to Loss of Juvenile Winter-run Chinook Salmon at the CVP/SWP Delta Facilities

California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) | July 1st, 2003

Winter-run Chinook salmon are distinguishable from the three other Chinook runs in the Sacramento River system by the timing of their upstream migration and spawning. Due to precipitous decline in the population from the late 1960’s through the late 1980’s, NOAA Fisheries listed the run as “threatened” in August 1989, and subsequently reclassified the run as “endangered” in 1992. The state of California listed the run as endangered in 1989.  Many factors contributed to the decline in the winter-run Chinook population. Among these factors, operation of the federal Central Valley Project and State Water Project has had continuing impacts on winter-run Chinook. Of particular concern have been the direct entrainment losses of juvenile winter-run Chinook at the project export facilities in the Delta.
