This Project is a continuation of ATLAS-01-06 & -08, it’s ongoing purpose was the further sampling of the Crowsnest, Upper Oldman, Livingstone & Castle River drainages plus their tributaries for fish populations and fish habitat data.

The objectives of the Project were two-fold: to collect and store fish population and fish habitat data in a standardized format and to ensure that usable fisheries data was supplied to partners in a timely manner.

In 2002, crews sampled 80 sites over forty-one creeks located within the study area and entered the collected data in a standardized provincial data base (FMIS).
