FISH PASSAGE THROUGH FLOODGATES RESEARCH
We are actively researching fish passage through three different types of floodgates on the Coquitlam River in ƛ̓éxÉ™tÉ™m Regional Park (Colony Farm Regional Park). The study compares a rare automated floodgate (one of only two in the Lower Mainland) with a typical top mounted floodgate and a side mounted gate using novel and innovative which lets us see each individual salmon's success in passing at the floodgates. The research is being done in a partnership with UBC Pacific Salmon Lab, kÊ·ikʷəƛ̓əm (Kwikwetlem), and Metro Vancouver Parks.
