ABSTRACT

The natural gas pipeline proposed by Northwest Alaskan Pipeline Company traverses hundreds of waterbod ies in the Yukon River and Beaufort Sea drainages. This report is a comprehensive summary of all available fish use information including reports, ·unpublished documents, agency memoranda and personal communications for each water course involved and is designed to facilitate i nformation access and retrieval for fishery resources documented along the proposed gas pipeline route. This report presents: (l) a tabular summary of fish use and recommended timi ng for pipeline construct ion activities at individual crossings; (2) a provisional list of 492 waterbodies crossed or potentially affected by the ga s pipeline with an updated evaluation of seasonal fisheries data for each; and (3) a concise assessment of all pertinent fisheries data for each waterbody surrrnarized on a seasonal and year-round basis.

INTRODUCTION

Northwest Alaskan Pipeline Company proposes to construct the Alaskan segment of a buried pipeline which would transport chilled natural gas from the arctic to southern markets. The proposed routing of the Northwest Alaskan Pipeline parallels the Alyeska Oil Pipeline f rom Prudhoe Bay to Delta Junction with some minor variances, and then follows the Haines-Fairbanks Products pipeline right-of-way east from Delta Junction to the Alaska/Yukon border.

On January 4, 1979, LGL Ecologi ca l Research Associates (LGL) was awarded a contract by and through Fluor Northwest, Inc. funded by Northwest Alaskan Pipeline Company, to identify the waterbodies crossed or potentially affected by the gas pipeline project and to assess and summarize the fish utilization of these waterbodies on the basis of all historical data and the results of 1979 seasonal investigations. The results of 1979 field inv es tigations are published in separate seasonal reports. Informa t ion was assimilated from a variety of sources including published government and consultant reports and file data from the Joint Fish & Wildlife Advisory Te am (JFWAT) in Anchorage. Agencies consulted included: State Pipeline Coordinator's Office, Alaska Department of Fish and Ga me (Habitat and Sport Divisions) and U.S. Fish and Wildlife (Stream Alteration Di vision ) .

STUDY AREA

The study area addressed in this report extends along the proposed gas pipeline route from Prudhoe Bay south to Fairbanks and then east to the Alaska/Yukon border (Figs. l and 2). For descriptive purposes, the route has been separated into two distinct regions: the northern segment and the southern segment.

The northern segment is aligned closely with the Trans-Alaska Pipeline System (TAPS) oil line and work pad and extends from Prudhoe Bay to Delta Junction. Between Prudhoe Bay and Atigun Pas s , a distance of approximately 275 km, the proposed route crosses the arctic coastal plain, traverses the northern foothills of the Brooks Range and crests Atigun Pass--the highest point in the Alaska routing. Within this area, the proposed gas pipeline alignment parallels most of the Sagavanirktok River and crosses numerous side channels. Larger streams like the Sagavanirktok characteristically are fast-flowing, clear and have wide , e x tensiv~Jy braided, gravel floodplains. T~ey.support resident and anadromous fish at different times of year and are often used for overwintering. Smaller streams along this section are usually narrow, single channel draina ges with stained water and support fewer species of fish than larger streams. These drainages usually freeze to the bottom in winter. Surrounding vegeta ti ve types incl~de willow, dwarf birch and tundra flora.

South of Atigun Pass, the route continues through the Brooks Range where it crosses the Dietrich and Upper Koyukuk drainages. Most streams within the first 130 km south of Atigun Pass are wide, braided and fastflowing throughout the summer. Floodplains are gravel and usually without meanders. Vegetative cover in this region changes f0~m wh ite spruce, lichens and dwarf willows in mountainous areas, to black spruce and birch, inte rm i xed with tundra and muskeg in lower elevations.

Approximately 130 km south of Atigun Pass, the proposed ga s pipeline route enters the Yukon drainage where most streams exhibit a high degree of meanderi ng. Although some of the larger streams are clear, most are stained brown with tannins and lignins leached from muskeg areas. Many of the larger streams, like the Koyukuk and Jim River, support overwinteri n fish and provide habitat for fall spawning salmon. Although most smal l streams do not provide overwintering habitat, they are used by juvenile and young-of-the-year fish during summer. Dwarf spruce and willow are predominant in tundra areas, wh il e large spruce and birc h vegetate river bottoms.

From the Yukon River crossing, the proposed gas pipeline parallels the TAPS oil line through the White Mountains and into the Fairbanks area. Here the northern segment routing continues southeast within the Tanana River Valley to Big Delta.

The southern segment of the study area begins near Delta Junct ion where the proposed gas pipeline route diverges from the Trans-Alaska Oi l Pipeline. The proposed gas line co ntin ues so ut hP~st from Delta Junction, anJ ~dt'dllels the Ha1nes Products pipeline to the Yukon border. Throughout most of the 313 km between Delta and the Yukon border, the route is within the broad, flat Tanana River Valley or in the northern foothills of the Alaska Range . This routing passes through alternating tundra or muskeg and mature stands of spruce, birch and wi ll ow .

Within the firs t 100 km east of Delta Junction, the proposed pipeline route crosses four major rivers: Li ttle Gerstle, Gerstle, Johnson and Robertson rivers. These are glaci al rivers that are hi ghly turbid and have extensively braided floodplains. Most other draina ges cros sed in this area are small tundra streams which are used by f ish during summer but often freeze so lid during winter.

The current alignment l eaves the foothills of the northern Ala ska Range near Tok, Al aska , and borders th2 Tetlin Flats. This is a wet muskeg area characterized by an abundance of la ke s, ponds and small streams. Dur ing ic e-free mo nths, many lakes and most small streams are used by waterfowl and fish. During winter, the smaller waterbodies freeze solid and do not provide overwintering habitat . Larger streams on the southern section, like the Tanana and Ch isana rivers, become clear in early winter and provide overwintering habitat. From Tetlin Flats, the proposed gas pi pel ine alig nment continues east t hrough the

Upper Tanana River drainage basin to the eastern boundary of the study area--the Alaska/Yukon border.

PATTERNS OF FISH MOVEMENTS AND STREAM USAGE

After breakup has occurred, fish are normally found in three

5

general types of streams along the proposed pipeline route: (l) small beaded tundra streams, (2) large-size creeks and (3) large rivers. The small beaded tundra stream (e.g., Shocker Creek and S.F. Minton Creek) is usually frozen solid during winter and breaks up between late March and early June. These streams vary from 0.5-1.5 min width and seldom exceed l m in dept h. Substrates are variable but contain gravel, sand, silt and de tr itus. Although the water is usually clear, it is frequently stained from tannins and lignins leached from surrounding vegetation. Stream banks are often 0.5-l . 5 m in height, undercut and vegetated with dwarf willow and birch.

Within the pro posed gasline corridor, small beaded tundra streams like Shocker Creek are used primarily by grayling, but round whitefish and/or char may occasionally be present depending on geographical location of the stream. Adult gray ling may move into these streams at spring breakup, spawn and then move some distance back downstream. During the egg incubation period (early May to early July) juvenile grayling, juvenile whitefish and/or juvenile char may also move upstre am into these areas. After the grayling eggs have hatched in late June to early July, emergent fry remain in the general vicinity until freeze-up. As fall approaches and water temperature drops, all fish begin moving downstream to overwintering areas. Small beaded tundra streams generally do not provide spawning habitat for fall spawning species.

The large creeks or small rivers (e.g., Prospect Creek, Moose Creek or Beaver Creek) are usually 5-10 min width, with stained or clear water and a substrate consisting primarily of gravel and sand. Banks, 0-2 m in hei gh t, are seldom incised. These drainages typically exhibit alternating stretches of deep, slow-moving water and shallow, rapid riffles. Some pools, especially in lower reaches, may be deep enough to provide overwintering habitat.

Within the proposed gasline corridor, medium-sized streams receive more intense use by fish than small beaded tundra streams. Excluding overwintering, these drainages generally serve as major spring and fall migration routes for many species. Some, especially those with perennial spring sources, may be used for spawning by spring and fall spawning species. Young-of-the-year of fall spawning species (pri marily whitefish, char) and eggs of spring spawning species (primarily grayling, northern p i k e , l o n g nos e s u c k e r a n d s l i my s c u l p i n ) rna y b e p re s e n t d u r i n q s pring. By late June or early July, fry of spring spawners have emerged and may remain in the vicinity until freeze-up. Many streams are used in tensi vel y as nurs ery areas t hroug hout the open-water season by juvenile gray ling, whitefish, sculpin, pike, chub, char and others. Adult fish

.. ·I ~

of several species are commonly present throughout the seaso n. Some of the most northerly medium- sized streams may al so support an anadromous fi sh run during the open water season. As fa ll approaches, fi~h general ly begin moving down stream to overwintering areas.

Large rive rs sim il ar to the Tanana, Yukon, Koy ukuk and others vary from 100-1 000 min width and 1-10m in depth. Floodplains are usually braided and consist of gravel, sa nd, and silt, depending on r i ve r or1 g1 n. Large rive rs usually do not fr eeze solid and so they provide yea r- round habi t at f or fi sh.

Large rivers are the primary migration pat hways for all species of anadromous fish. During spring, many juvenile salmon migrate downstr eam to enter the oc ea n; others may remain in freshwater for one or two years, depending on the species. A variety of f r eshwate r f i sh a l so use l arge r ivers as migration r outes, spawning sites and nursery area s yearround. Virtuall y all large rivers prov ide overwintering habi ta t for fi sh.

LIFE HISTORY OF FISH SPECIES

The fo l lowing are brief accounts of the life his tories of fish species fo und al ong the proposed pipeline r oute and cons truc ted from general accounts of life histories found in References 116 and 117 and the professi ona l knowledge of fisheries biologists in this r egion. The account s ar e no t exhaustive and they do not dwell on stud ies that have been performed in far -removed areas. We have rather at temp t ed t o compile and interpret results of studies that have been performed on waterbodies in the vicinity of the proposed pipeline corr idor. In ma ny cases, no such resea rch has been performed and we have prov id ed a more general account for the species.

Catostomus catostomus - Lon gnose Sucker

Longnose sucker are abundant in most of the la kes, rivers and streams along t he entire pipeline corr idor (Fi g . 3). However, little informa t ion concerning their biology is avail ab le. Mature lo ngnos e suckers migrate int o tributary streams shortly after breaku p and begin spawning in l ate spring and early summer. In the Do nnelly River, a tributary of the Macke nzi e Ri ver , upstream migrations of longnose sucker have been noted to beg in i n late May, and spawning ha s been re ported to begin in early June (Ref. 109). After spawning, adults immediatel y move out of t ributary spawning streams and move to r earing or overwin tering areas. Eggs hatch in 1-2 weeks and the young remain in the grave l fo r an addi t i onal 1-2 weeks. Upon emerging, the f ry migrate downstream and eventually enter overwintering area s .

Cor agonus autumnalis - Arctic Cisco

In Alaska, Arctic cisco are found on ly north of the Brooks Rang e and along the pipeline corridor they are conf ined to t he Sagavanirkto k River drainage (F ig. 4). This species is anadromous and initiates its pre-spawning upriver migrations in spring . These migrations continue through summer and spawning occurs in late summer and early fall. Downstream migrations to the Beaufort Sea or estuarine waters occur immed iately after spawning. Although not we ll documented, eggs presumably hatch in spring and the young descend downriver to estuaries.

Coreaonus nasus - Broad Whitefish

Broad whitefish are dis t ributed throughout major river s and streams along the proposed pipeline route from Prudhoe Bay to the Canadian border (Fig . 5). Both anadromous and non-anadromous fo rms are present. The former is fou nd most commonly in coasta l dra inages while the la tter is most often confined to inland rivers and streams . Pre-spawning upriver migrations of adul ts occur from late summer to ear ly fall , and spawning generally occurs from Octcber to December . Post-spawning migration s of adults to overwintering area s immed i ately fo ll ows spawning. Fry hatch sometime in the spring and those of t he anadromous va ri ety immed iatel y begin the ir downstream migration to t he sea .

Coregonus pidschian - Humpback Whitefi sh

Humpback whitefi sh are present i n many of the large r r i ver s and streams along the pipeline corridor (Fig . 6) . Pre- spawning upriver migrat i ons of the anadromous forms occur in late summer. Spawni ng begins in ea rly fa ll and may cont inue into November or December . In the Chatanika River spawning has been noted to start as early as 19 September (Ref. 11 5) and peak ac tivity has been repor t ed to take place the l ast week in September (Ref. 100 ). When spawni ng is complete, mi grations downriver to overwinter ing areas occur. Eggs hatch in late winter and early spring, at which time the young beg in a slow migrat i on downriver to eventual overwintering areas .

Prosopium cylindraceum- Round Whitef i sh

Ro und whitefish are one of t he most abundant whitefish in Ala s ka and are f ound in many of the streams and r ivers along the entire gasl ine corr idor (Fig . 7). Upstream migrations of pre~spawning adult s norma ll y takes place in ea rly summer but has been reported to occur as ea rl y as l at e April and early ~ay i~ t he Goodpasture River south of Fa irbanks (Ref . 11 5) . Spawning takes place in shallow, gravell y ar eas during late summe r and fa ll, after whi ch an immediate post-spawning downstr eam migration t o overwint eri ng areas occurs. Peak down stream mi grations in the Lupine River have been observed to take place within the first week of September (Ref . 101). Eggs hatch the fo l lowing spring and the young rema in in shallow water areas un t il summer, when they beg in a downstream mi grat i on to overwintering area s .

Cor egonus sardinella - Least Cisco

Both anadromous and non-anadromous least cisco are found in the vicinity of the proposed pipeline (Fig. 8). The larger anadromous form is most often found in coastal areas, while the smaller 'resident ' form is usually confined to inland lakes and rivers. Upstream spawning mi grations begin in spring and cont inue until the onset of spawning in late summer and fall. In the Chatanika River, spawning begins in midSeptember (Ref. 115 ) with peak spawn ing activity occurring the last week of September (Ref. 100). Rapid downstream migration to overwintering areas occurs shortly after spawning. Anadromous least cisco overwin ter in estuarine areas near the mouths of large rivers whi le non-anadromous pop ulations overwinter in lakes and la rge rivers.

Ccttus cognatus- Slimy Sculpin

General

The slimy sculpin is one of the most abundant and frequently occurr i ng species in streams along the gasline corridor from Prudhoe Bay to the Canadian border (Fig . 9) . Unfortunately, its life history is probably one of the least understood. Spawning occurs from late April to early June . Slimy sculpin are relatively sedentary but undoubtedly undergo some seasonal moveme nt . Th e extent and magn i tude of such movements is unknown.

Site-specific Information

Spawning

Sheenjek River drainage, Monument Creek- observed newly hatched sculpin along with eyed eggs 25 June (Ref. 114).

Sheenjek River drainage, Monument Creek - estimated to have spawned in late May one week after breakup (Ref. 114).

Delta Clearwater River - observed many sculpin spawning in shallow water on and around a large, dead log 28 April; underside of log was covered with numerous egg masses (Ref. 89).

Coue sius plwnbeus - Lake Chub

Lake chub are present iri many 6f the lakes, rivers and streams along the pipeline corridor within the Tanana and Yuko n riyer drainages (Fig. lG). Very littl e information is available concerning the life history of these fish in f ar northern regions. Lake chub are thought to undergo a pre-spawn ing upriver migration into small tributary streams, where they spawn in shallow rocky areas. Spawn ing is believed to occur in spring and early sumner, however, ripe males and gravid females have been captured in late August in northern Canada (Ref. 117 ) .

Information concerning egg incubation time requirements and movements of fry are not available; however, i t is likely that fry eventually move downstream to stable overwintering areas as do adult lake chub . Some post-spawning mortality of adults has been suggested (Ref. 117).

Uallia pectoralis - Alaska Blackfish

General

Oi~tribution of the Alaskan blackfish is limited to Siberia and Alaska. Blackf i sh occur eastward and inland in Alaska only as far as Fairba nks. Documentation for blackfish presence in waters in the vicinity of the proposed pipeline corridor to date exists only for Eng ineer Creek and the Chatanika River. Other Yukon drainages crossed by the pipeline undoubtedly harbor blackfish (Fig. 11 ), but the degree of utilization in the area is unknown. Little is known about blackfish movements but they appear to be relatively sedentary and are often found in waters uninhabitable by other species. Spawning is believed to occur from May to August.

Site-speci fic Information

Spawning

Lake Aleknagik (Wood River Lakes system) - spawning estimated to occur mainly in July (Ref. ll 2) .

Big Eldorado Creek (Fa i rbanks) - spawning occurs from May to August with most intense spawning in June (Ref. lll ).

Miqration

Big Eldorado Creek - blackfish migrate upstream after breakup in May (Ref. lll ) .

Es ox l ucius - Northern Pike

General

Northern pike generally occur throughout Alaska and are relative ly abunda nt throughout the Yukon and Tanana river dra inages. Although they do occur north of the Brooks Range, they have not been documented in waterbodies tn the vicinity of the pipe line co rrido r in that region (Fig. 12). Northern pike begin their spawning migration from overwintering areas in early April. Pike are very active at this time as they seek shallow weedy areas of lakes and slow-flowing rivers. Spawning takes pl ace as soo n as shal l ow areas become ice free, generally from l May to 20 Ju ne depending upon the region. Northern pike generally remain in shallow weedy areas until near freeze-up when they begin migrating to overwinte ring areas. In some lakes that provide overwintering hab i tat,

Migration

Goodpaster River- upriver during late April and early May 1973 (Ref. 95) . Minto Flats region - pike ascend the rivers in Minto Flats area beneath

the ice in spring (Ref. 1 20) . Minto Flats region- pike migrate downstream in fall and overwinter in

the Tolovana and Tanana rivers (Ref . 120).

Lampetra javanica - Arctic Lamprey

Arct ic lamprey are found on ly in major inl and rivers and coastal drainages in Alaska. Along the proposed pipeline ro ute their known distribution i s limited to the Yukon drainage (Fig. 13). Little information is available concerning their 1 ife history. Adult fish migrate upstream in spring and spawn from late May to ear l y June. Out migration of adults occurs shortly after spawning is completed. Eggs hatch within a few weeks and the young begin their downstream migration the following spr ing.

Lata lata - Burbot

Burbot are common in the majority of the larger rivers, lakes and streams throughout the pipeline corridor (Fig . 14). Burbot are unusual in that spawning takes place in winter, usually from Fe bruary to April, when mature pre-spawning adults move into sha ll ow spawning areas from the deep water areas where they spend the summer and fall. Burbot in t he Tanana River spawn in February, and numerous pre-spawning adults have been reported in a number of interior lakes in March and April (Ref. 89). Eggs usually hatch within 30 days and you ng appear from late

March to late Ju ne. Young-of-the-year and yearling burbot spend most of the late spring and summer in rocky, shallow, weedy areas of tributary streams.

Oncorhynchus gorbuscha - Pink Salmon

Pink salmon in the vicinity of the gasline corridor are occasionally present in the lower reaches of the Sagavanirktok River on ly. Prespawning adu l ts move upriver in early to mid summer and spawning takes place in August and September. Adults die shortly after spawning i s completed. Eggs hatch from December to February and the young (alevin) remain in the gravel for several weeks. Fry emerge in early April and May and immediately begin a downstream migration to estuarine waters where they may spend several months before moving offshore. Pink salmon generally spend two years at sea before returning to freshwater to spawn.

Oncorhvnchus keta - Chum Salmon

General

Chum salmon in the vicinity of the proposed pipeline route are found primarily in upper Tanana River drainages (Tanana , Delta, Delta Clearwater, Salcha, Chena and Chatanika rivers) and middle Yukon River drainages (Prospect, Jim and Middle and South Fork Koyukuk rivers). An occasional chum salmon has been found in the Sagavanirktok River (Fig. 16). The first run of chum salmon into the Yukon River usua l ly appears in early June. · Other runs follow and upstream migrations to spawning grounds is not complete in some streams until October. Chum sa l mon i n the Salcha, Chena, Chatanika and Middle and South Fork Koyukuk r i vers usually reach their spawning grounds by mid July and spawning i s complete by l September. A late fall run of chums reaches the upper Tanana, Delta and De l ta Clearwater rivers by mid October and spawning peaks in the last week of that month. Chum sa l mon fry emerge from the gravel beginning in early April and continue to the first week of June. Fry spend little time in freshwater and out migrations follow shortly after fry emergence. Chum sa l mon generally spend 3-5 years at sea before returning to freshwater to spawn.


Spawn ins

Delta River- spawning peaked the last week of October 1974 (Ref. 32). Delta River- spawning occurred from mid October to end of November 1975;

spawning peaked 29 Oc tober (Refs. 32 and 33) . Salcha River - spawning peaked durinq the second and third weeks of

August 1976 (Ref. 14). -Chena River - chum salmon spawn i n late summer (Ref. 11).

Oncorhvnchus kisutch - Coho Sal mon

In the vicinity of the gasline corridor, coho salmon are found primarily in the Yukon, Chena and upper Tanana rivers. Pre-spawning adult salmon migrate upriver from August to October and spawning takes place from September to December. Adults die shortly after spawn ing is completed. Eggs hatch in early spring, but the young (alevins) remain in natal gravels for two to three weeks. Fry emerge in May and June and must remain in freshwater to rear for one to two years. Seaward migrat ion of smolts generally occurs during and immediately following breakup. Coho salmon spend two to three years at sea before returning to spawn in their fourth or fifth year of life.

Oncorhynchus tshawytscha - King Salmon

General

King salmon which utilize streams alo ng the proposed pipeline route are found primarily in the upper Tanana River drainages (Goodpaster, Salcha and Chena rivers) and middle Yukon Rive r drainages (Pro spect, Jim and Middle and South Fork Koyukuk rivers) (Fig. 17). King salmon destined for the aforemen tioned streams probably enter the Yukon River in late May and arrive on the spawning grou nds beginning l Jul y . Spawning peaks 20-30 July in middle Yukon River drainages and in early August in upper Tanana River drainages. After hatching and emerg ence from spawning redds, young king salmon generally remain in freshwater for two years before ~;grating to sea. Smolts begin their downstream migration during and immediately following spring breakup. King ~almon remain at sea two to five years before returning to freshwater to spawn in their fourth to seventh year of life. Males usua lly mature sooner than females and spend less time at sea.

occurs 20-30 July (Ref. 88). Salcha Ri ver - fry emergence continued at least through 18 June 1976 and

possibly through that entire month (Ref. 14).

Mi gration

Salcha River- adults entered river in early July 1974 (Ref. 25). Jim, Prospect and Middle and South Fork Koyukuk rive rs - adults begin

arriving after 1 July (Ref. 88). Sa lcha River - smolt out migration probably peaked before 25 May 1976

(Ref. 14) . Jim, Prospect and Middle and South Fork Koyukuk rivers - smolt out

migration peaks during breakup (Ref. 88).

Per aoosiD omiscomaucus - Truut-Perc:ll

Presence of the trout-perch in the vicinity of the proposed pipeline corridor is confined to the Yukon River. Little is known of the biology of this fish in river systems, however lake populations have been investigated (Fig . 19). In the Yukon River spawning occurs from late spring through su1mner as ripe spec imens were taken at Circle, Alaska, on 28 June 1958 . Timing of spawn ing of river populations is suspected to closely follow that of lake populations. The latter move into shallow clearwater tributaries of lakes to spawn at night in gravel and cobble substrate. The eggs adhere to the substrate and hatch in 10 to 20 days.

Punaitius pun~7it ·ius - Ninespine St ickl eback

Ninespine stickleback are present in many waterbodies along the pipeline corr idor north of the Brooks Range (Fig. 20). Spawning generall y takes place in sha llow, well vegetated areas dur ing spr ing and summer. Spawni ng may occur more than once in a season (Ref . 116) and egg s normall y hatch within 7 days and the young disperse into nearby nursery areas.

Salve l inus alvinus - Arctic Char

General

Arctic char are abundant in streams and la kes along the gas pipeline corricor draining into the Beaufort Sea but are only occas i ona lly present in Yukon River drainages (Fig. 21). Arctic char are generally re placed by Dolly Varden south of the Brooks Range to the Yukon River and in

headwater streams of the upper Tanana River. Mature anadromous Arctic char, followed shortl y after by immature fish, generally enter freshwater streams (upstream migration) from late July to mid-September. Arctic char generally seek large rivers or perennial springs that flow yearround. Spawning takes place from mid-August to December but most fish in our area spawn from September to late October. Adults may remain in spawning areas to overwinter but most move downstream to overwinter in l ower reaches of spawning streams. Spawning areas also provide overwinter ing habitat for juvenile char. Emigration to the sea of adult and juvenile (smolts) char occurs shortly after breakup (June to early July). Arctic char generally remain near the mouths of natal streams and feed in estuarine waters before returning to freshwater in late summer and fall. Non-a nadromous Arctic char have a similar life histo ry as anadromous fish except that they remain in freshwater year-round.

Sa l veZinus ma lma- Dolly Varden

Along the proposed pipeline route, Do lly Varden are found primaril y in clear headwater streams of the Alaska Range in the upper Tanana River drainage and the southern Brooks Range in the middle Yukon River dra inage (Fig. 22). Fish from both regions appear to be non-anadromous and spawn in September and October . Dolly Varden were seen spawning in Schroeder ' s Spring (Overwinteri ng Creek) a Dietrich River tributary, on 13 September 197 (Ref. 11) . Dolly Varden in both regions are usua ll y associated with clear spring water areas

and only minor seasonal movements occur. Dolly Varden in the vicinity of the proposed pipel ine are small, rarely exceeding 25 em in length.

Sa Zvelinus namaucush - Lake Trout

In Alaska, the dis tribu tion of the lake trout is confined to Beaufort Sea drainages of the Brooks Range and areas within the Ala ska Range south to the coast. The only documented lake trout observations along the proposed gas pipeline corridor occurred at Stump Creek, Roche Moutonee Creek and the Atigun River, all of which are Sagavanirktok Rive r drainages.

Adult lake trout favor deep, coo l waters du rin g summer but move i nto sha llow lake shore areas to spawn in fall (September -No vember). Eggs remain within gravel and rubble su bstrates during winter and hatch after four to five months. After spawning, adult lake trout disperse th roughout lake or river systems. Young trout remain in shal l ow water along the shores for several years before moving into deeper waters.

Ster~dus l eucichthys - Sheef i sh (Inconnu)

General

Sheef ish or inconnu are found in streams of the Yukon and Tanana river drainages. They inhabit primarily the Chena, Chatanika, Tatalina, Tolovana, Yuko n, Ray, Dall, Kanut i and Koyukuk rivers and Hess Creek (Fig . 24). Sheefish appear to utilize the lower reaches of many of the

(Fig. 24). Sheefish appear to utilize the lower reaches of ma ny of the aforementioned streams more heavily than upper reaches whe re the proposed pipeline corridor is often situated. They begin a gradual upstream spawning migration at spring breakup . This migration may last several months with ITOn-spawners traveling to summer rearing areas and spawners reaching spawning grounds as early as August. Spawning occurs from late September to ear ly October and a rapid downstream post-spawning migration to overwintering areas occurs shortly afterward. Anadromous sheefish overwinter in estuarine areas near the mouths of l arge rivers wh ile nonanadromous (i.e., Minto Flats inconnu) popula tions overwinter in large, deep rivers.


Spawn i ng

Chatanika River - spawning occurs in late September and early October (Ref. 113).

Upper Kobuk River- spawn ing occurs in late September (Ref . 86). Koyukuk River- spawning occurs in September and October (Ref. 11 ).

Migration

Minto Flats/Chatanika River- sheefish enter Minto Flats in late May after breakup; sheefish reach spawning grounds on Chatani ka River in late August and September; rapid downstream migration following spawning (Ref. 113).

Thymallus arctiC".A.S - Arctic Grayling

General

Arctic grayling are found throughou t the proposed pipe line corridor (Fig. 23) and are the most frequently occurring species. Adult grayling begin their up stream spawning migration as early as 10 Ap ril in some streams and juveniles follow shortly thereafter. Spawnin g generally la sts 3-15 days and falls within the period 10 May to 20 June depending upon the region (see site-specific information below) . The timing of migration and spawning for grayling in streams north of the Brooks Range generally appears to be two weeks after the same events in more southerly Alaskan streams. Adults may remain in the vicinity of spawning grounds to rear but most spend the summer rr;ont hs in other tributaries or the mainstem of the system. Juvenile and young-of-the-year grayling generally remain in natal streams until near freeze-up when all grayling begin moving downstream into large rivers to overwinter.

SUr1MARY OF FISH USE A:'ID PRELIM I NARY REC OMM ENOATI mi S

FOR TI Mi ti G OF CONSTRUCTinN ACTIVITY ~-~ .,_ ... ~. I J

.. , '~ 't ~·~~

r.

INTRODUCTION

A tabular summary has been derived from evaluation of all available fisheries data pertinent to construction of the gas pipeline by Northwest Alaskan Pipeline Company. This summary includes documented fish presence, use and recommendations that prioritize the period or periods of year when instream cons truction would have the least impact on aquatic fauna found at individual waterbody crossings. These recommendations can aid in preconstruction planning, design and construction scheduling.

Recorrmendat ion s for timing of construction activity were based on al l available f isheries data, including general and site-specific li fe history information for indigenous species (see Part I of this report), professional judgment and know-ledge of the region traversed by the gasl ine. Recommendations are presented as I preferred 1 and 1 alternate 1 time peri ads . In general, preferred timing of construction avoids critical (instream disturbance would likely result in a fairly significant mortality to a portion of the population) and sensitive (instream construction shou ld be limited ; effects of disturbance variable) periods in fish life histories . Alternate recommendations avoid critical periods but may encompass sensitive times when fish are present (rearing) . Some waterbodies are critical and/or sensitive to fish yea r-round. In such cases, recommendations indicate the period (or periods) that would least impact the aquatic fauna.

The words "critical " and "sensitive" are relative terms used to compare the importance of fish habitat to fish and the potential fo r adverse effects to fisheries resources. vi hen habitat is utilized by fish for spawning, wintering, migrating or rearing, the habitat is considered criti cal and/or sensitive. An exp l anation of the se fish uses and an assessment of their importance to fish populations follows:

Spawninq : For the purposes of this report , spawning includes the spawning act, egg incubation, hatching and pre-emergent fry stages of fishes . Spawning habitat has been id enti f ied by the pre sence of yo un gof-the -yea r or pre-spawning, ripe or post-spawning adults. Spawnin g is a time of site-specific ut ilization of hab i tat and is considered a non-mob1le activity. Cons equent ly, spawning areas are extreme l y · vu lnerable to disturbance. Therefore, for the purpose of making recommendations, spawning i s conside red a critical fish use.

43

Wintering: Wintering i s the utilizati on of habitat by fish (any life history stage, egg to adult ) during some part of the winter period (generally freeze-up to breakup) . Some waterbodies are undoubtedly utili zed for only a short period (early winter use areas) while others provide good hab itat for fish f rom freeze-up to brea kup (overwintering are as ). Wintering is genera lly s i te-specific and may involve non-mobile life history stages of fish. Wintering areas then, are highly vulnerable to disturbance , and for the pu rpose of this report, wintering is cons idered a critical fish use .

Migrating: Migrating is the utilization of aq uat i c habitat by fish for moving between seasonal use areas and/o r habitats . Fi sh utilizing hab itat as a migrat ion route are gene rally mobile and capable of moving to avoid or reduce the effects of phys i ca l disturbance . However, disruption of majo r upstream spawning migrations or major emigrations, prinr to freeze-up, could have extremely detrimental, and in some cases , 1 etha l effects on fi sh populations (e .g. the blockage of a small t undra stream j ust prior to freeze-up would t r ap fish in upstream areas that soon dry up or freeze to the bottom at the onset of win ter). Long-term seasonal migration and short-term moveme nts associa t ed wi th feeding and social behaviour may not be so adversely affected. For the purpose of this report, migrating may be sens i tive or cri tica l depending upon the magnitude and s i gn i fica nce of the migration.

Rearing: All wate rbodies containi ng f i sh are considered rear ing areas . Rearing f i sh are generall y mobile and can often move to avoid or reduce the impact of physica l distu rbance. Fish mobil ity may vary with species, size, behavi our and physica l cond i t i ons wi th in the stream, however . For examp l e, fry are usuall y no t as mobile as ad ults; some f i sh are sedentary whil e others are hig hl y mobi l e; and, turbi dity co ul d affect spec ies reaction to a disturbance . For t he purpose of this report, rear ing i s considered a sens i ti ve fi sh use .

For the purpose of making recommendations regarding timing of constructi on activi ty, the gas line corridor has been divided into three 1 a rge geographi ca 1 regions: Region I, Beaufort Sea to the Conti nental Divide of the Brooks Range; Region II, Continenta l

A critica ·l period for most st reams due to the occurrence of major spring migrations and spring spawning (primarily grayling).

A sens it vie period. Fry of spring spawning species have emerged and major fa 11 emigrations have not yet begun. Fish are mobile at this time and can move to avoid or reduce effects of disturbance.

A critical period for all streams. Fish must emigrate from streams that do not provide winter habitat prior to freeze-up . Major up stream migrations and spawning of fa 11 spawning spec i es occurs in stre ams that provide overwintering habitat.

Due to the immense number of wa te r bodies (pt~imarily str ear-:1s) traversed by the proposed gasline, a wide spectrum of stream types is encountered ( i .e ., size, f low regime, species present, water source, water chemistry, etc.). Many streams are similar in nature and can be adequately protected by the guide lines developed above . Hm'lever , each wa te rbody i s unique and not all fa ll into suc h clearly definable categories . Little information is ava il able for some streams making specific detailed recommendations improbab le. In addition, recommendations must take into account na tural va ri ability (i .e . effects of weather on fis h and t heir environmen t) . Consequently, recomme nda tions for timi ng of construction activ i ty p t~esented in thi s repor t are cons idered conse rvative and favor f i sher i es resources when adequate i nformati on i s not availabl e to properly assess the fis hery resource status of the waterbody invo lved . Re commendations are based on biol ogic al cons iderati on only and do not take into account other aspects of a large const ruction proj ect (i.e. engineeri ng, economics, e tc.). It is important to note that recommendati ons in t hi s report can be more f l exib le i f 1) suitable mit i gati ve measures all eviate the particular fisheries co ncerns, or 2) add i tiona l data c l arifies t he f i sh use status of some streams.

All waterbodies crossed or potentially affected by the proposed gas pipeline route are presented in a south to north geog raphic sequence beginning at the Alaska/Canada borde r and endi ng at Prudhoe Bay . The appropri ate Northwest Pipeline Stream Identif ication (NPS I) numbe r (Ref . 42) has been used to identi fy each waterbody crossi ng or waterbody potenti ally affected by pipe l ine construction.

INTRODUCTION

In a large scale project such as pipeline construction it is essential for reference purposes to maintain an updated list of waterbodies crossed or potentially affected by the pipeline. To date, the provisional list contains 492 entries. Reference 4, 11, 42 and 48 provided the basis for this list which includes lotic and lentic habitats known to contain fish or having the potential for fish utilization. Many waterbodies have multiple pipeline crossings --each cros sing is treated as a separate entry in the list.

Data sources (see Lite ra ture Reviewed) that contain physical or biological information are listed by number for each waterbody. The most recent evaluation of the fish use status of each is provided in the form of seasonal criteria. These criteria were developed to standardize the manner is which waterbodies were evaluated. It is important to note that criteria definitions in this report differ somewhat from those used in 1979-80 seasonal reports (Refs. 54, 55, 57, 77). This is due, in part, to the availability of new information as well as to a change in rationale concerning conditions that must be met for a specific criteria to be assigned. For the purpose of this report, criteria assignm~nt has been limited to actual documentation of fish use or non fish use (habitat not available) for each season. Thes e have been based on results of field investigations and/or literature (See Part IV - Compendium) rather than extrapolation of existing seasonal information to another season or stream in a simil ar area based on professional experience and judgement. These criteria numbers do not necessarily reflect the authors' recommendations for addi tional fie ld sampling. Although seasonal data gaps may remain for some streams, further investigations may be unnecessary and costly. The criteria used are as follows:

Number Criteria

Fish Use Area--Waterbody investigated and fish use documented .

2 No Fish Use--Waterbody investigated and no fish use documented.

3 No Fish Use Inferred--Absence of habitat inferred and supported by indirect evidence: small drainage with negligible intermittent or no flow or fish bloc kage present.

4 Data Gaps Present--Waterbody investigations incomplete or lacking: waterbody has not been surveyed for fish use, or previous data were inconclusive .

1 21

Waterbody evaluations were based on an extensive literature review, communications with state and federal agencies, previous field surveys and professional judgement . Primary sources for literature were published government and consultant reports and file data from the Joint Fish & Wildlife Advisory Team (JFWAT) in Anchorage. Agencies consulted included the State Pipeline Coordinator 1

S Office, Alaska Department of Fish and Game (Gatitat and Sport Fish Divisions) and U.S. Fish and Wildlife (Stream Alteration Division).
