Comments: This site was visited during a routine inspection of fish streams along the Trans Alaska Pipeline System. Sampling occurred in conjunction with Alyeska staff Lee McKinley and Carleton Hautala. Slate Creek at this location should be moved west as depicted in the attached map and have rearing Chinook and coho salmon added to it. Another nomination will be submitted to add an additional flow path slightly to the southeast in the vicinity of where the old Slate Creek AWC line was. Attached is a map depicting the sampling area as well as pictures of captured juvenile Chinook and coho salmon. Dolly Varden and slimy sculpin were also captured here.
