b)

Trawling Survey Samples will be taken every other week during l

March, April, May, and June.

Emphasis will be on larval fishes.

Relative abundance and species composition will be determined.

Spines, scale samples and length / frequencies shall be obtained for representatives of each species.

Population count and species shall be reported.

c)

Trap Net Survey l

Trapnets shall be placed out in the spring and i

fall each year with lifts made for five (5) l consecutive days.

Spines, scale samples and l

length / weight frequencies shall be obtained for representatives of each species.

Population count and species shall be reported.

d)

Cove Rotenone Survey The cove rotenone survey using standard procedures i

approved by the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission shall take place in sample area 18 and " control area" 19-in September.

Spine, scale samples and l

length / weight frequencies shall be obtained for i

representatives of each species, and growth rate i

shall be determined.

Population counts shall be i

reported.

e)

Shoreline Seine Surveys Shoreline seining shall provide data on fish spawning and fingerling population. The positions for shore-line seining operations shall be chosen in areas characteristic of fish spawning.

This, along with the trawling survey, will provide-infcrmation relative to the peak spawning period and the relative abundance of these fishes.

This operation stall take place during the spawning season beginning in April, and in May and June to survey fingerlings.

f)

Fish Cage Survey Cages containing mussels shall be placed at sample stations shown in Table 4-3 and marked for recovery.

Mussel samples shall be recovered semi-annually and retained for radiological testing.
