Heat forces Oregon hatchery workers to truck salmon 100 miles 
By Tara Kulash US Source: oregonlive 7/21/2015

Workers move quickly to transfer adult spring Chinook, one fish at a time, from their pool to a truck full of cool water. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service moved more than 160,000 salmon over the last two weeks from Warm Spring National Fish Hatchery in central Oregon to Little White Salmon Fish Hatchery in the Columbia River Gorge. Rich Johnson, fisheries supervisor, said more than 2,000 juveniles were dying a day from diseases related to warm water.
 

As a last ditch effort to save fish from increasingly warm waters, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has transferred more than 160,000 salmon to a different hatchery.

About 10 workers moved the mostly juvenile spring Chinook over a three-day period from Warm Springs National Fish Hatchery in central Oregon to Little White Salmon Fish Hatchery in the Columbia River Gorge. Then they moved 680 adult fish during the week of July 13.
