Connecticut River Coordinator's Office: Fish Passage Schedule Page 1 of 3 Skip navigation links Fish Passage Schedule The Connecticut River Atlantic Salmon Commission establishes an annual schedule for the operation of up and downstream passage for a number of dams in the Connecticut River basin.

These schedules are based on the projected movement of migratory fish and may be adjusted in season to address actual observations.

1. Actual dates of operation are based on passage of fish at the next lowest downstream fishway and/or monitoring of radio-tagged adult salmon locations.
2. Zone -of-passage flow of 1,300 cfs or more to the bypass reach below the dam
3. Zone-of-passage flows for shortnose sturgeon passage in summer (July 16 through September 14) are not currently required until downstream passage measures are in place to protect down-running sturgeon.
4. Actual hours of operation on a day-to-day basis are to be determined by the Massachusetts Division of Fisheries and Wildlife in consultation with the project owner.
