Fisheries- <br /> <br />(1) Corrnnerical type - none, <br /> <br />(2) Sports type - Project water would be released <br /> <br />from storage to provide mi.ni.mum streamflows <br /> <br />and create a year-round sport fi.shery where none <br /> <br />now exists. About 11 mi.les of stream would support <br /> <br />a cold-water trout fi.shery, and an addi.tional 45 miles <br /> <br />would support a warm-water game fishery. Project <br /> <br />reservoirs would also be stocked with game fish, and <br /> <br />an existing reservoir would be stabilized and co~- <br /> <br />sequently improve stream fisheries below it, <br /> <br />(3) Local or national significance: The improved <br /> <br />fisheries would not have national significance, <br /> <br />but would provide a significant resource on a <br /> <br />local level, <br /> <br />e.
