1. Game Fish Survey of the Innpounded Public Fishing Waters of Virginia. (FA: 

 F-l-R) 



This survey is designed to yield information which will aid the formulation 

 of management policies for the impounded waters of the State. Fish population 

 studies involving the use of rotenone and conventional netting gear, and harvest 

 studies are receiving preferred treatment in the execution of the project. Large 

 reservoirs, State and municipally owned reservoirs, are receiving most of the 

 attention. 



Statewide; began July 1, 1951, to close June 30, 1954; $20, 000; Robert G.
