Fish Hatchery Work
Started This Week
First stages of construction on
the fish hatchery to be built on
Fire Lake outlet were started this
week.
Land for the building has been
leased from the Territory and
work on the 42’ by 38' concrete
block building is expected to be
completed this summer, with use
of the hatchery to commence next
spring, Alex McRae, senior biolo
git with the Alaska Department
of Fisheries said in a recent visit
to Palmer.
Funds from Fish Unlimited will
be used in the construction of the
building, he said, with a mini
mum figure of $7,600, including
donations of labor and heavy
equipment work from various or
ganization, to come from Fish Un
limited. The Department of Fish
eries will furnish $3,000 to get
the hatchery in production with
additional funds as they progress,
McRae said.
The hatchery should be in full
production within three or four
years, he said, dependant upon
the amount of water ready for
planting. Fish fry will come from
the Fairbanks hatchery. Rain
bow trout will be used entirely
for the time being, with the hopes
af planting a minimum of 100,
000 frys in 14 or 15 lakes this
season. Continued plantings of
these lakes will be dependant up
on the success of the plantings,
some of which will be in an ex
perimental phase.
Rehabilitation of Echo Lake is
tentatively planned for the latter
part of June, McRae said, with
member of the Matanuska Sports
men Club furnishing some of the
labor on the project. Restocking
of the lake will be done this year,
also, he added.
The hatchery will hold 40
troughs, capable of handling one
million fish. During the produc
tion period, there will be a train
ed man at the hatchery, McRae
said.
