3. Farm Pond Demonstration Program 



A series oi ponds are seined and analyzed for population balance. Ponds 

 in different stages of balance are selected and a demonstration is arranged for 

 interested Soil Conservation Service personnel and farm pond owners. In 

 addition to this visual demonstration of balanced and unbalanced fish popula- 

 tions, proper management techniques are demonstrated. An effort is also 

 made to show interested persons the effects of improper management. 



Soil Conservation Service cooperating; Headquarters - Atlanta, field work 

 in the 12 southeastern States comprising Region 4 of the U. S. Fish and Wild- 

 life Service; began August 1955, continuing; Robert T. Webb, Leader.

1. Biochemistry of the Waters off the South Atlantic Coast of the United States 



The objective of this project is to determine the distribution and concen- 

 tration of nutrients and the relation between these nutrients and the distribution 

 and concentration of fishes as a means of delimiting potentially productive 

 waters.

 Investigations, P. O. Box 28 3, Brunswick, Georgia. 



2. Biological Inventory of Waters off the South Atlantic Coast of the United States 



The objective is to determine the presence, identity, distribution, and 

 inter -relationships of marine forms in the area as an aid in understanding the 

 presence, abundance, availability, and fluctuations of the fishes. Special 

 attention is directed to the distribution and abundance of fish eggs, larvae, and 

 juveniles.

1. Biological and Economic Survey of Fishery Resources in Lake Pend Oreille 

 This project, in its sixth year, is designed to measure the effects of 

 Albeni Falls Dam, located on the outlet of Lake Pend Oreille, and Cabinet 

 Gorge Dam, located on the inlet or principal tributary, on the very important 

 sport and commercial kokanee fishery and upon the sport trout fishery. Creel 

 census and biological surveys, including age -growth, length frequency, and 

 spawning escapements of the kokanee, and limnological studies of the lake, 

 are used to evaluate the fishery and the effects of the dams. Statistical 

 analyses of all creel census data are made.
