Audience:  Government and Public

Bull Trout spawner abundance has been monitored by conducting redd counts in index streams of Kootenay Lake in 2011, 2013, 2015, and 2017, with partial surveys conducted in additional years since 2006 (Masse Environmental Consultants Ltd. 2016; Andrusak 2014; Andrusak and Andrusak 2012a; Andrusak 2010). The Ministry of Forests, Lands, Natural Resource Operations and Rural Development (MFLNRORD) funded a contract to complete the redd counts in 2019 using the same methods as defined by Decker and Hagen (2008) and in the same index stream reaches as in previous years. As mentioned in the Services Agreement, the objective of the counts is to document adfluvial Bull Trout spawner distribution and abundance within Kootenay tributaries during the fall of 2019 as part of a long-term time series. These data will form part of the core monitoring program of the Kootenay Lake Nutrient Restoration Program. This data report summarizes the results of the 2019 Kootenay Lake Bull Trout Redd Counts conducted by Mountain Water Research in October for MFLNRORD
