    The Biddle Pond acclimation site was utilized for juvenile spring Chinook 
    acclimation between March 26 and June 3, 2010.  The outlet of the pond is located 
    at 48.48820 N, -120. 248258 W.  Two detection systems were installed, in series, 
    within the outlet of the pond.  The upper location (01) was installed on March 26 
    at 12:00, approximately 10 meters downstream from the acclimation pond, and taken 
    out on June 3 at 13:37.  The lower system (02) was installed approximately 10 meters 
    downstream from 01 and was deployed on April 15 at 09:00 and taken out on June 3 at 
    13:32.  Fish (n = 25,591) were transferred from the Washington Department of Fish 
    and Wildlife, Methow hatchery on March 26 for short-term acclimation, of which 
    9,987 were PIT tagged.   A volitional release was initiated on April 19 and 
    concluded on June 3, when final observations (snorkel surveys) determined that 
    all fish had exited the site and no new tags were detected for a period of 5 days.  
    There were no interruptions to the system throughout the acclimation period.  
    Early detections prior to the release were presumed to be escapees and net 
    adjustments were made immediately after detections were noticed.  Although there 
    were two PIT tag detection systems in place at the outfall of the pond, the high 
    number of PIT tags integrated within the population combined with a rapid 
    outmigration contributed to a significantly lower than expected pooled detection rate.
