Historical Note

Seattle Public Utilities (SPU) was created in 1997 when the water, solid waste, drainage, and wastewater utilities from the Engineering and Water departments were merged with the Engineering Services Division of the Engineering Department and the Customer Service Call Center and Construction Engineering Sections of City Light. SPU provides water to over 1.25 million customers in the Puget Sound region. Other services to the public include sewer, drainage, and solid waste (garbage and recycling). SPU also provides engineering and survey services to city departments. The department's outreach and education programs aim to reduce water consumption and increase recycling and composting.

Content Description

The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife has operated the Cedar River Sockeye Hatchery at Landsburg, Washington at river mile 22 on the Cedar River since 1991. The program was funded as mitigation by Seattle Public Utilities for the Landsburg Diversion Dam and is guided by the 2005 Adaptive Management Plan. Hatchery annual reports contain both narrative accounts and data and cover spawning, inclubation, rearing, trapping, and releases. Landsburg fish ladder reports summarize fish passage operations through the ladder at the Landsburg Dam. Sockeye broodstock reports document findings from biosampling including origin, age, length, and other traits.
