ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Contributions of the following are gratefully acknowledged: The Riparian Landowners Association of the Logan and Blacksmith Fork Rivers who permitted access across their lands, particularly Ray Theurer who was instrumental in arranging the initial meeting with the Association. Much of our access was gained across land owned by Clyde, Milton and DelRay Campbell, Joe Rinderknecht, Oliver Low, Howard Fuhriman, and Darrell Kunzler. Arthur Maurer provided access to the control site and George Winborg provided access to the bulldozed site on the Blacksmith. Seth Alder, who owned land on which the recently dredged site was located, notified us before each dredging and served as a liaison with other landowners. There were many people employed for various lengths of time during the project, all of whose names cannot be listed. We are no less grateful for their contributions than for those that follow. Phillip Gerrish contributed greatly during the early stages of the project. Robert Reudiger, Craig Reger, and John Coyle were technicians in various phases of the research. Carl Brotherson was employed as a technician, although we depended on him far more than that humble title would imply. The work-study program at Utah State University provided a large number of student assistants, all of whom were appreciated. We especially thank Joseph Hinricher and Phillip Goebel for their efforts throughout most of the project. Helen Payne typed the first draft of this report, and Ellen Parker typed the final draft, for which we are most grateful. Robert Burdick produced most of the final graphics. A contract with the National Stream Alteration Team of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service provided the major support. Additional support was provided by the Utah State University Ecology Center, the Utah State University Wild- life Science Department, and Utah State University through the work-study program. This project was a joint venture of the Utah Cooperative Fishery Research Unit and the Utah State University Department of Wildlife Science. The Utah Cooperative Fishery Research Unit is jointly supported by Utah State Univer- sity, the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Department of the Interior. The following persons were responsible for assembling the data and writing the sections of this report: PhYSical Parameters - W. T. Helm, Brown Trout _ J. C. Gosse, Mountain Whitefish - M. J.
