1. 3. What is the objective of each tagging effort and are the right tags being used, or proposed to be used, to accomplish that objective Primary (P), which indicates it is the current primary tag technology used in decision making, Strong Secondary (SS), which indicates this current tag technology is a secondary source of information critical to current decision information or an emerging primary technology, Weak Secondary (WS), which indicates this current tag technology is a secondary source of information not critical to current decision information Specialized (SP) indicates that this tag technology currently has limited application, Future (F) indicates that this technology is not currently being used to address the management question but that a future application is being explored, and Not Applicable (NA)

2. PIT tags primary tag for 33% of questions Many predation questions are difficult to answer with current tag technology

3. CWT - primary tag for 100% of questions PIT – primary for 19%, and genetic for 4% Genetics – has largest potential future application

4. CWT & PIT - primary tag for 30% of questions

5. PIT - primary tag for hydro questions Acoustic & Radio for passage routes and route survival

6. PIT - primary tag for habitat questions All other tags play minor roles

7. CWT - primary tag (54%) for hatchery questions Genetics - 66% primary & strong secondary Adipose – 33% primary tag, others minor

10. Tag Management Summary No single tag technology (same as ISRP) PIT tags are most useful (48%), followed by CTW( 33%), Acoustic and radio generally limited route and reach survival, and specialized applications CWT mature technology, PIT tags maturing technology, & genetics newest most potential future applications
