The Kitimat Hatchery consists of 14 outside raceways, 62 Capilano Troughs, 6 Chum Keeper Channels, 80 Atkin Cells, and 672 Heath trays. There are three ways that we get our water. 5 wells are located around the property, there is a river water intake pump, and we use industrial wastewater at 40oC that is supplied by Eurocan. This water is used to heat the building as well as manipulate the growth of the fry.
