Lam, K. (1982). An ex-post benefit-cost analysis of the Meziadin Fishway. Canadian Manuscript Reports of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences. 1643:44.
Salmonid Enhancement Program facilities for sockeye salmon Oncorhynchus nerka are currently being evaluated using a multiple objective planning framework referred to as the Five Account Methodology. The five accounts to be assessed include National Income, Regional Development, Native People, Employment, and Resource and Environmental Preservation. The Meziadin fishway is evaluated using the same methodology. However, rather than relying totally on projected cost and production information, historical data is available for a number of years. By carrying out ex-post benefit-cost analyses on pre-S.E.P. facilities, their overall performance can be assessed and the information used to increase the net benefits of S.E.P. facilities.
